I always knew motherhood would be hard but I did not realise how hard. DS has had terrible reflux and has had problems with weight gain as a result. He has been cantankerous, probably because of his reflux and I find it so hard because I am not always able to comfort him. To make matters worse I feel like everyone is looking at me and assuming that I am a terrible mother because he cries so much.
DH is generally really sweet and helpful but he has no idea how down this is making me. I think he just thinks that I am coping with it fine.
TBH I sometimes feel like giving up on being a mother and I wish that I could be carefree for one day.
AIBU for feeling like I just want to be left alone and to wish I could get away from it all for just a day.
