First time mom issues

Girl fuck the odds your a good mom that’s all that matters . Fuck what every one else thinks

You love your baby and you’re giving her the very best. You feed her with the best you have: your breast milk. You dedicate all your time to her and show her she's not alone, that if she needs you, you’re there. I’m raising my 3-month-old the same way: breastfeeding, and I’m going to stay home as long as I can and as long as it’s needed. My partner works, and we prefer that our baby is with me rather than in daycare, paying a stranger to raise him. If you have the possibility to stay at home, it’s a privilege!

People always have something to say: if you take your baby to daycare, you’re a bad mother, if you don’t, you are too! If you bottle-feed, you’re bad, if you breastfeed, you are too! I don’t listen to others. I listen to my baby, who cries when he’s hungry or needs comfort, and I try to be there for him and show him that I love him and will always take care of him.
There’s advice we can learn from, but feeding and comforting are non-negotiable: they’re the best we can do for them. They’re so tiny, so defenseless, they need us! ❤️

Soemtimes you have to tune others out and dont give your power away to others allowing them to change how you feel or view yourself. If youre confident in your decisions then u can also speak up and say… we are fine… thank you. And they will get the picture. Sometimes u have to grey rock method peoples comments and itll help u.

There are moms feeding their babies formula and sending them to daycare who are being criticized that they aren’t doing what you are doing. We can’t win…. except in our babies’ eyes ❤️

girl you’re doing nothing wrong! this sounds like it came from a boomer’s or older generation, or someone with no kids! Don’t listen to them, you’re doing what’s best for your child , and honestly a lot of moms dream of doing what you’re doing!❤️❤️

Who is saying things like this?

The sad truth is, as a mum, and forgive me for sounding harsh - you're going going to have to toughen up and learn to fight for what you believe is right, ignore people or walk away from people that constantly criticise without you asking advice. You need to protect your peace and sanity

If this is one person, you need to tell them how their criticism is making you feel otherwise it will get worse

Mums will always be criticised for choices (dads less so)

I have been criticised for working part time over full time, working part time over staying at home , putting my child in an ERF seat at 3.5, not getting my child an ipad, not letting him eat in a moving car, not letting him have popcorn or mini eggs, not letting him have a whole ice cream when he was a baby, no teddy under 1. He's only 3.5 I'm sure there is more criticism but you know they're my kids, not yours.

I will listen to your advice/criticism but ultimately I will do what I feel best for my children

Exactly we wait for the reward from God not people because its sooooo easy to criticise others and it takes alot to cheer someone and accept that they are doing sth good especially with the system around us where its more important to make money than to make well decent humans
Dont worry God knows and sees everything you do for her and she is blessed that God gave you to her as a mother
May allah ease it on you ❤️❤️ for me reading quran help me keep on track and remember that Heaven has a price and this is one of the best ways to get it ❤️

Someone told me something the other day IF YOU DON’T TRUST THEIR ADVICE, DON’T TRUST THEIR CRITICISM EITHER

dont listen to them its not their kids, i also love the way you said it because ive had similar thoughts of ‘the life i imagined didnt happen but im grateful’

Everyone always has something to say ,no matter the subject I get shit from my mother all the time

Who cares what others think ,fk em really what do they know my son is 7 ,7 yrs on I still feel like I'm learning
Just remember your a good mum,she's well loved .
And motherhood ant easy!
