I feel like a terrible mom
I’m so stressed. My son is 8 weeks old and is fussy all day long. If I put him down, he whines. If I’m holding him, he whines. When I feed him, he unlatches every 30 seconds to whine. When he’s in his baby wrap, he whines. It’s like I can’t win. He’s on gripe water, gas drops and probiotics for his belly issues. He fights every single nap during the day and will thrash his whole body until he finally falls asleep. He only sleeps for like 20 minutes or less because he’s such a light sleeper and wakes up to any noise.
I’m at my whits end. My husband works all day 5 days a week so I barely get any help.
Sometimes I seriously think I can’t do this. I get so frustrated that I yell and get really annoyed with my son. It makes me feel awful and like I’ve failed him. I hate getting upset but it is honestly just so damn stressful. And to top it off, my husband is in the army so we live across the country from family and I have no help what so ever. I just want two hours to myself so I can be calm and just be the best mom I can be 😭
