Frustrated

I’ve been feeling so frustrated lately… my kid cries and nothing helps sometimes and everyone says let him be. But I can’t just let him cry. But then he wants to be held all day. The only thing he doesn’t cry at is watching tv ( miss rachel) I feel like a bad mom and that I’m not doing enough for him… we still live at my parents I feel like a failure half the time My partner and I argue all the time. I’m losing myself and can’t find who I am anymore… just so depressed. Have a psychologist appointment soon and feel like I’m a mess 😣

Ok first of all You’re not alone. Second, you’re the mom. You know what’s best. People tell me advice all the time but if you want to hold him or let him watch educational tv then there is nothing wrong with that. I have just recently found myself after feeling like I lost myself in my pregnancy and postpartum journey. I’ve had to have a lot of convos with my partner because he and I too would fight all the time. I had to explain what I needed and he had to have a listening ear. We don’t have it perfect but it’s better than it was. All in all you’re in the middle of a major transitional period in y’all’s life and there is a lot that is constantly changing. Give yourself some grace and know that time changes and heals A LOT! You’ve got this mama. Btw. I have 8 month old twins that do screen time a majority of the day because I work from home with no childcare so don’t feel bad. They’re learning. They’re getting what they need. I hold them when I can and everyone is happy♥️
