What’s your mom guilt?

Question

Everyone struggles with something. 
Mine used to be food (“ are you getting all the nutrients and enough variety? Am I feeding you too much carbs or fruit? Eat another vegetable.) 
but currently it’s morphed into screen time (too much pbs kids? Is it that bad?) and enrichment (did I read enough with you? Are you getting enough stimulation or too much?)

Answer

Mom guilt is no joke. I was experiencing it so bad yesterday told my hubby and mom I felt like a bad mom cause I let my son watch baby songs on YouTube for most of the morning. Then I felt like I needed to even it out by letting him explore at the library later on in the day for an hour. 
I’m also 21 weeks pregnant with #2. I’ve had a back injury prior to my csection and then was in a car accident at the beginning of this second pregnancy so my back sucks! Physiotherapist recommenced I not walk up hills and take shorter walks because that’s when the pain comes on. Well yesterday I had a meeting to attend requiring me to walk up the hill with my stroller and I could feel the moment I hurt it again 😩 any time I want to take my son out for an enriching activity (swimming, library, baby/mom groups) my back starts to hurt on that walk but I don’t drive and these activities happen during the day time when hubby is at work so he can’t drive me. I want to connect with other moms and babies for my son to socialize more. He’s such a happy guy he loves to be around other people and babies.

Answer

I feel guilty about pretty much everything... I feel like a terrible mom in general.

Answer

I feel guilty for being too tired, too in a hurry. Rush to the Babysiter's in the morning, rush to  go pick her up, rush home to cook, feed her and give her a bath and put her to bed. I stay up cooking & packing her stuff for the next day & the weekends catching up with laundry and cleaning house. I feel like a bad mom all the time.
