Feeling like the worst mom ever 😢

If baby is fine then a drs trip isn't necessary. To be honest you've probably helped baby build their immune system up. Your only human, and humans make mistakes, it's how we learn. Don't beat yourself up xx

It’s pretty gross, but unless baby has been showing signs of being sick, I wouldn’t worry too much this time around. Definitely a lesson learned!

@Deb Thank you! That makes me feel a little better 🥺

@Ashley Definitely! Thank you!

I’ve been there actually!! It happened to me too the underside of his bottle rack was NASTY and I felt so guilty that I just was so busy and tired I didn’t even think of it. He didn’t show any signs of sickness but I felt guilty and was glad I caught it when I did. You caught it, it happens, try not to stress too much!

@Elizabeth I feel so guilty right now 😞 Thank you for sharing this

What signs should I be looking for? The only thing going on with baby I can think of is a rash on belly, could that be related to it?

It happened to me too. Don’t beat yourself up. Usually I’m the first to feel guilty about everything, but in this case I just think we are doing our best and only those don’t make mistakes who don’t do a thing ;) If LO is fine, it is all good. I didn’t take my son to the doc because of this and he is perfectly well.

I'd assume tummy issues so sickness or diarrhea. Could the rash be heat rash? My LG has had heatrash as its warming up. X

Just see how it goes. Mold doesn't automatically mean you were "poisoning" your child, yes it's gross, but remember not all mold is harmful and some are even beneficial. Penicillin for example is produced by a kind of mold, and the mold needed for blue cheese.. there are probably millions of "neutral" molds that don't really do anything. Unless you have a cause for concern then you can just learn from it and move on 🙂

Been there ! Don’t beat yourself up. I would say just watch for signs of sickness. Otherwise I think they’ll be ok. It happens ❤️

Thank you so much everyone! I'm feeling better now with all your comments 🫶 I learned my lesson. Motherhood is hard, a learning process, and feeling guilty for every little thing we don't get right (often enough) is the hardest part, in my opinion 😣 This support from mamas like you, feels like a life saver. Thank you all 🤍

You got this !

You would watch for digestion issues (throwing up and/or diarrhea). If it was going to happen it would have by now, baby should be in the clear 😊

@Ashley Thank you, luckily baby never got any issues 🙏
