Bad mother
Today I lost it. She cried and cried all morning, we went out for the day she was fine. Got home and cried and cried and cried.
It got too much, I walked out for a breather. Came back in and lost my shit. I didn’t shout, I didn’t become aggressive but I did throw a punnet of berries which scared her
Queue me falling apart because I’ve scared my own daughter. What kind of mother am I for scaring my baby girl. I feel beyond disgusted with myself.
I don’t even know why I’m writing this. I guess a chance to say it out loud? I hugged her so tight at bedtime but I’m still so cross with myself

YOU ARE NOT A BAD MOTHER ❤️
My daughter used to cry so much when she was a baby , I would spend more time outdoor then at home just so she wouldn't cry.
All moms have been in the same situation as some point in their journey.
Be kind to yourself 🌹
Sometimes we,mums,get overhelmed....
We're all only human. My mum says to always apologise to your children when you make a mistake (which will happen to us all), that's all you can do. New start tomorrow xx
There’s a reason they use children screaming and crying as an interrogation tactic. It’s bloody intense!
I’m not sure how old your daughter is, but I doubt she’s going to remember that time you lobbed strawberries across the room.
It certainly doesn’t make you a bad mum.
Girl I’ve been there. My little one had stomach issues from birth so she had days where if she wasn’t asleep she was shrieking. I wanted to put her on the floor and just leave the house.
I screamed at her once and immediately started weeping because I felt like I was the worst mom in the world because I am supposed to be able to make her feel better and I’m failing.
Take some deep breaths. You got this momma!
