Your not a terrible mother at all hun. Sometimes the best thing to do for you and LO is leaving them for 5-10mins, they can sense when you are getting tense and worked up which makes them feel the same way so you both need a break to calm you down then get back to it xx

None of your are terrible mothers, you are doing the right thing but taking 5 - 10 minutes to take time out. They must sense when you are frustrated and getting upset, I know Ellis did. I put him in his chair or cot so I knew he was safe and took that time to compose myself (cry) and went back much calmer. I hope she settles soon for you x

The others have said it all. My OH always says that Ruby will pick it up when I feel frustrated and upset (like when she won't nap etc) I get cross with him for saying it but he's right. So take some time out.

So your lo has been screaming most of the day, you fekt yourself getting stressed and wound up and you left the room.

And you think your a BAD Mother?

Sweetheart, You are a WONDERFUL Mother but your not God with everlasting patience. You did the right thing don't ever doubt that!

Hope things a bit better today and that you got some sleep.
