Done soemthing about my PND earlier with DS1. I still struggle with him and live with the guilt that I fucked him up in the early days.

I suspect that the things we think we´ve done wrong they won´t remember. Anf the things we didn´t see as a problem, they´ll hate us for. That is until they have their own kids of course!

Pretty much echo bronze's post. Wish I'd have told people how demanding ds was instead of hiding away and pretending everything was OK and I was coping, when I wasn't.
