i felt like a terrible mom today
We went to lunch with my mom and we saw friends of ours. Well I was giving cadi pizza and I blew on it and checked if it was hot but I must have not checked well because my poor dd started shaking that it was too hot and my mother came and tried to take it out of her mouth. I felt like my mother thought i was soo terrible and didnt know what I was doing. I just want to cry. I felt soo bad and felt worse because i felt like my mom thought I didnt know what to do. UGH I still feel bad about this

Re: i felt like a terrible mom today
I have done this before and feel horrible too. I think all Mommies have moments like that. Plus sometimes our own Mother's are our worst critics. Don't feel bad

I've done this before too and felt awful. It happens to all of us, don't beat yourself up about it

Re: i felt like a terrible mom today
I just did this tonight-we went to Mama's and I thought the piece of squash I gave him was cool enough, but the inside must have been too hot!! You sound like a great mommy-do not ever beat yourself up-every day is a new day!!

Re: i felt like a terrible mom today
That has happened to me a couple of times. Not to worry---my DD has no lingering scars and neither will yours.
Remember that your mom was once in your shoes. I'm sure she realizes that no one is perfect. She has probably made her share of mistakes. Haven't we all?

Re: i felt like a terrible mom today
All of us mommies have a bad moment. Unfortunately they always seem to happen when we are under our worst scrutiny. What the spectators don't realize is us mommies just have so much on our mind all the time.
Don't stress it. Cadi won't remember it tomorrow and by next week your mom will have probably forgotten too

Re: i felt like a terrible mom today
Fortunately, so far, my bad moments have been at home when we are alone. I think they seem so much worse when you are with other people.

Re: i felt like a terrible mom today
Unfortunately for you, you don't remember all of the terrible things that YOUR mom did to you when you were a baby.... As long as she is human, she is far from perfect. She's forgotten so many more things that she did wrong than you have done.

Re: i felt like a terrible mom today
Oh Andrea.... Really - HUSH!!!!!! You are not a terrible mom.... trust me - my mother second guesses me allllllll the time... makes me feel guilty for a lot of the things that I do with Kristina....
I just tell her - look... I'm not going to do anything which is going to harm her, so please relax, and let me be her mommy.
It may have been perfectly fine in temp for you, but maybe a little warmer for Cadi. Happens all the time momma!!!!!!!!
