My mother offered to stay up with Andrew tonight but I feel bad...
She said she really doesn't mind.
Would you let her? I feel like he is my responsibility and no one else should stay up with him but then again I am exhausted

Re: My mother offered to stay up with Andrew tonight but I feel bad...
I would take it. Go on. She wouldn't offer if she didn't want to do it!!
Sometimes its hard to take something when someone offers it to you, but you can't be a good mommy if you don't get enough sleep.
Do it for me. I don't get offers like that being across the ocean from my mom...so take it and think of me!!!

I know you feel bad, I would feel that way too but ultimately if my mom offered, I would probably take it...at least for a few hours of sleep, it's worth it!

Re: My mother offered to stay up with Andrew tonight but I feel bad...
In the beginning, I didn't take anyone up on offers to help. But I soon wised up because I was starting to feel burned out. So my advice...TAKE THE HELP!!!! and get some

Re: My mother offered to stay up with Andrew tonight but I feel bad...
Definitely take the break. I refused the help that was offered to me in the beginning and mentally I paid for it dearly. I was completely spent and burnt out.
