Feeling like a bad mom

I should have taken Ella to the pedi today for him to check her ears but decided not to cause she seemed like her cold was much better and she was fine. BIG mistake. She is a mess again and refuses to sleep. I'm taking her in tomorrow no matter how well she seems. She is exhausted and miserable. She's trying to go to sleep but isn't able to. She wants to hold onto a big tag while sucking her thumb but stupid me took all the tags off her soft toys. That is the ONLY way she will calm down right now. Any ideas for something I may have around the house that's small with a tag and crib safe till she falls asleep?

    1. You're not a bad mom.

    2. Maybe a clean wash cloth (something small) with a tag? It would almost be like a lovie.

    My DD is like this with tags, adorable and strange. Ditto the washcloth. You are not a bad mom.

    Don't beat yourself up, mama!  I hope your LO feels better soon.

    Good thinkin' :). My mind is so frazzled. I got her out of the crib and brought her into bed with me and gave her the washcloth and she cuddled up with me and fell asleep after a few minutes. I just put her back in the crib. I'm sure she'll wake up again soon but at least a can have a little bit of peace. I hate her being sick, selfishly because I got used to her sleeping all night

    I'm glad she is getting some sleep (and you can, too). I hope she feels better soon!
