Babies: 3 - 6 Months

FFFC

Yesterday I took my DD to register for highschool.  It never even occured to me to get a babysitter for LO, he's usually always so good when we're out & about.  It was a disaster.  We missed the meeting/orientation part.  He was fussy and whiny the whole time, didn't want to stay in his stroller, spit up all over me and decided he wanted to eat while we were trying to locate her classes.  Two of her classes are upstairs and I had my stupid giant stroller that I couldn't get up the stairs without making a production.  I should of just worn him, but I didn't have my sling or Bjorn.

Anyway, here's the confession part:  It was the first time I felt guilty for deciding to have another baby.  I couldn't please him, couldn't please her and felt like a complete failure. :(

  • I know exactly how you feel. It's so frustrating sometimes.

    I'm sure it won't be the last time I feel like that. :(  It sure is an adjustment after having an only child for 14 years!

  • I know how you feel.  I have two older kids, a 15 year old and a 13 year old.  I haven't had a kid in 13 years and my biggest fear is I will forget I have an infant and leave him somewhere.

    I also feel like I am neglecting my older kids.  We used to do so much more together and it feels like this summer was completely about the baby.

  • FWIW, I have 3 younger brothers. I was 10 when the youngest was born. I was old enough to realize that my life was different because the boys were around, but I adored them. I still do. HTH. You're not a failure. You'll get it all figured out :)

    This is exactly how I feel!  My oldest and I used to do so much together and this Summer we haven't gone to the beach one single time.  We practically lived at the beach in Summer's past.  I feel like I can't even have a conversation with her without being interrupted by all things baby.  ::Deep Breaths:::  It will get better...it has to!
