Yelled at my LO
Even writing this out makes me feel like monster of a mom.
My LO didn't nap today, at all. So he was extremely exhausted as was I.
I've been on my own for the entire week as my husband has been away at work.
When it came time to get him dressed after his bath, it was an absolute nightmare.
He would NOT stop freaking out, crying, wailing his arms and legs. I could barely get a diaper on, especially one that wouldn't leak throughout the night. This in turn made me start crying because all I wanted to do was quickly put his diaper on, get him dressed and nurse him before bed.
It took me about 8 tries to get his diaper on. I was so incredibly exhausted, burnt out and fed up, I just yelled STOP IT.
He was already crying from being tired but he got a little startled when I yelled.
I feel like such a shit mom. I can't believe myself. I know being burnt out, with no breaks since he was born and just being so exhausted while being a SAHM is NO excuse.
Have any of you ladies done this? Will this damage him? I don't want him to see my anger in times like this and think that's okay.
I feel so bad...
