Bad mom moments

Today I was attaching a table base to the top and my baby was crawling around near me because she’s super nosy these days and I had forgotten the metal weight wasn’t attached to the base and it fell off onto her hand 😩

Thankfully nothing is broken, just bruised and sore, but my god I feel like the worst fucking mom on the planet right now.

She’s only 7 months old...what if her development is stunted now because I have shit for brains ?

Help me feel better

What was your worst mom moment?

I has tile floors and insisted on sleeping with my son. On maybe three occassions I woke to him crying from falling off the bed.

Luckily, he was a 10 lb. baby that was 20 lbs. by the time he was 5 mos. (I was not diabetic).

I finally placed pillows on the floor in case I fell asleep playing with him.

No mistakes with my 2nd.

I have a few with my Taurus son.

Doctor told me not to sleep on my stomach because C-section, stomach muscles cut and healing...

Well, I accidentally did. I was home alone with my newborn and I breastfeed until he walked. I woke to him crying to be feed and to my horror, I was on my stomach and couldn't turn over to feed him.

It was the most comical scene of my Taurus strong arm newborn trying to suck on my back. He was making it to me no matter my lil scoots around the bed. His sucking on my back hurt.

Eventually, I grew a brain and while on my back I lifted my arm and pushed my breasts to him. While he was feeding, I realized that I could scoot feet first off the bed and stand, LOL.

😬omg haha

She did fall off the bed when we were on vacation a couple months ago. I didn’t realize she could pull herself over the pillows I had propped all around her and I was in the other room and heard this *thud*

Her crying was delayed so it took me a few seconds to realize it was her...I literally asked my husband “what was that?” 😂 poor baby. Wasn’t tile though, thank god!

Trust me.. she’s fine.

The other day I was holding my daughter up and spinning her in circles. All of a sudden I lost control and wacked her foot on the wall. I felt so bad she was crying so hard 🥺😂

Oh noooo 😩 I could see me doing that too

Surprised I haven’t smacked her head against walls and shit in the middle of the night - it’s been a real fear of mine

LOL, she was delayed because experiencing pain for the 1st time had her daunted, Lol.

You've seen the comercials about the 2nd baby. I think it's Luv's diaper commercials. It's true. You are too cool for school with the 2nd child.

Look at it 😩😩😩

I stayed miraculously calm when it happened and just held her until she stopped crying and iced it

But now that it’s over and she’s sleeping on me I’m working myself into tears

I’m not sure she’s not going to be my one and only yet

The first few months were so rough for me I can’t imagine doing it again but everyone says I’ll forget

We’ll see

Everyone deserves a sibling

Mine are 7 years apart. It took some convincing the Virgo who was horrified at the possibility of a female child. She's 17 and dating for the 1st time and is still almost had a meltdown.

A sibling helped my Taurus get a bit smarter about alot and took some of the pressure off of being the sole representation of all our expectations.

Look at it 😩😩😩

I stayed miraculously calm when it happened and just held her until she stopped crying and iced it

But now that it’s over and she’s sleeping on me I’m working myself into tears

Awww, such a sweet lil hand.

Just imagine if you did it three times, I was horrified each time I woke.

On the flipside, I was so good with my Pisces not experiencing pain, she would come to me with the complaunta about the slightest ache or pain... "mommy my knuckle hurts."

3 times is almost funny - he was probably yelling COME ON, MOM 😂

And you’re right, it’s probably good for her - toughen her up

I know she’s going to get hurt a lot more in life but I hate that it was because of me and my negligence

If she closes her hand in a door or something that’s on her 🤨😝

Childhood battle wounds make people strong! She will be fine.

I know I didn’t expect to get so upset over this type of thing

I always say “experience is the best teacher”

I guess it’s because I felt it was my fault and not a typical baby accident

So now I’ve been having anxiety all day like what if something worse happens to her because of me? I won’t be able to live with myself...



I wonder if this ever gets less stressful

Loving someone this much is scary af guys

You’re not a bad mom. Being a parent is hard work.

How’s your new baby niece ? Haven’t seen an update

Welcome to being a Mom! 😉

Stuff happens. So you learn, they learn. 😘

Awww sorry to hear that. I know that cry was probably heartbreaking. 💔💔. She will be fine and won’t remember, she’s too young. But you will remember this the rest of your life and always be more cautious around your babies. A win-win. Don’t beat yourself up over it. Shit happens and accidents do as well.

It will get easier and less stressful. Btw she won't remember it.

i saw someone beat their baby for crying (lke beatng your children will make them stop crying or something). i would like to say something but its kind of out of my place, but it was very uncomfortable. and some people should just not be allowed to be mothers
