Have been in tears lots already today.
My mum goes into hospital this afternoon, having a mastectomy tomorrow - I've had a few fairly rough nights with my lo (19 weeks) and last night I couldn't sleep cos worried about mum... started to drop off at about 12.20pm after lying there for ages, then ds woke up for a feed (he'd been asleep since 8ish) then woke every 2 hours or less for rest of night.
So I got no sleep when I really really need it and I know that lots of people have this all the time but I just wish I could explain to ds that mummy is having a rough time right now!
Also - he seems hungry every time, so I always feed, feels like right thing to do and he usually goes straight back to sleep but keep being told that he 'shouldn't' be so hungry in the night?!
Feel like a crap mum and also a crap daughter as I can't go and look after my mum as my ds would be too much for her at the mo esp as she won't even be able to have a cuddle - am exclusively bf so can't go without him, anyway he needs his mummy even if I am crap! Any daytime 'routine' has dissolved into mush, someone tell me that all this too will pass!!
