Is this sensory issue ? And how to deal with it.

Question

I recently realized that i cant handle my baby or toddler crying or whining￼.

I get angry and want to stop them immediately... i even cant handle my 4 year old  calling my name more than once. I have a short temper .. i never knew before.

I had this thing even when i had only one kid so its not like it happened when i had my second.

Please help me please mamas! I dont want to be an angry mom.

Answer

Honestly, i have zero patience for whining. When my three year old hit the whining stage i started telling him i wouldnt answer unless he talked like a big boy, not a whiney baby. I keep my response neutral and noncombative but  internally screaming. I just CANT with whininess

Answer

You should speak to your doctor. You might have anxiety that comes out in anger. You need to make an appointment ASAP. Maybe get into therapy. The MamaZen app would be really beneficial for you as well.

Answer

I HATE whining. It like mails on the chalkboard to me. To help myself I take a deep breath and remind her to ask politely. I tell her I won’t respond if she whines and then when she rephrases it in a non-whining way I praise her soooo much. Whenever she says something to me politely i praise her and say “thank you for being polite and not whining at me, when you talk nicely to me it makes me want to help you faster”. She responds well to praise so the whine has reduced but sometimes it pops back up and it’s hard to not keep my cool. Usually I am screaming inside but try to stay calm on the outside lol. I figure, if I can’t keep cool in these moments, how can I expect her to lol. Good luck!!

Answer

Talk to your doctor. Consider therapy. And get something to take some of the noise that triggers you. Like loop or flare. It helps when youre sensitive to sound 🙏

Answer

You keep saying you’re okay, but it doesn’t sound like you are. That’s not a judgement, just a reflection of you’re describing your feelings. You don’t have to feel like that. You can see your doctor for parenting resources, medication, referrals for therapy, or any combination of those. Good luck!

Postpartum depression. Tell your doctor. I had it with my daughter, I went to therapy for a little bit and also make sure I had alone time as well

Answer

Sounds a bit like PND. Speak to your doctor
