Felt frustrated

The first time I got upset with baby in the middle of the night after hours of crying I was genuinely upset with him, last night I got annoyed but I talked myself down. I told myself that I’m his mother, he loves me and he’s trying to talk to me the only way he can. I’m really glad that I did better because I know I will continue to get better.

If you’ve felt frustrated, know you are not alone! I know we can sometimes put up a front of sunshine and roses but it’s okay to not be perfect.

It’s so important in those moments when they are crying and have been for hours that you don’t let the anger reach your hands. They just want mama and dad to help them.
