Is it okay to feed my toddler instant ramen just this one time?

Question

I have 2 toddlers ages 3 & 2. It’s one of those days where I just can’t seem to get shit done. I normally make them food from scratch but for lunch, I just feel like feeding them ramen & making them a smoothie loaded with fruits & veggies to make it up. Is that fine? Would that make me a bad mom? 🥺🥺🥺🥺

Accepted Answer

I can say with absolute certainty that you need to cut yourself a break ♥️

Answer

Why would that make you a bad mom? That’s such a ridiculous standard to set…. Surely moms aren’t expected to make every meal from scratch, 3 times a day, 7 days a week to be a ‘good mom’??? Sure ramen isn’t healthy but neither is most of takeaway and packaged foods out there. Please give yourself a break :)

Answer

Wow to all you judgmental mom’s saying yes to this poll. No, you’re not a bad mom. There will be days we will feed our kids processed, high fat, high sugar, foods. Guess what… we feed them. We can’t all be perfect Pinterest moms with their organic homemade homegrown meals every day. Let’s get realistic. Nothing wrong with some ramen. Maybe don’t use the entire seasoning packet, but it won’t kill them.

Answer

I think there are healthier choices that are just as quick BUT if that’s all they’ll eat or it’s all you have, go for it

Answer

Geez! 73% of you saying yes! I must be a terrible mother then! My toddler won’t eat to much! She’s very picky.. so it’s mainly hot dogs, chicken nuggets and top Ramen.. I’m just happy to see her eat something most of the time! You are absolutely not a bad mom what so ever!!

Answer

Its fine and n9 it doesn't  make you a bad mom. Lots of moms do this and it doesn't  make them a bad mom. No mom should be shamed for the way they care for their child unless there's  abuse or neglect ect

Answer

Are they fed?? Alright then. I'm all about the health and what not, bur some days the best accomplishment is that their bellies are full. It's not like you're giving them a whole chocolate cake for dinner and honestly even if you were screw it we all have those days!!! I hope they enjoyed they Ramen too!

Answer

If it makes you feel any better my 2 year old had ramen today 😂 I added eggs and frozen peas and called it a day 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

It would definitely not make you a bad mom. But if you’re going to give them that, water down the broth a little bit because it’s very high in sodium.

Answer

Yes it’s okay  , one time isn’t going to hurt nor does it make you a bad mom .  It’s not like your giving them ramen to eat everyday for every meal . Give yourself a break hun .
