I feel like an awful mother. My daughter is a piece of work when it comes to bedtime. She cries for hours and it cooks me up inside! It makes me want to curl up in a ball and scream.
She's such a lovely girl during the day. We have lovely times together. But when it comes to an evening, it's a battle. I know I shouldn't be angry. I should just get on with it, but it's hard. Especially because I try everything: we cuddle, I stroke her, try to comfort feed her and nothing. She just screams for hours. My partner runs away to the living room and I'm left alone with this screaming child that cannot be tamed in any possible way. I even try to put her into our bed but that makes it even worse.
It's awful but I feel relived when she finally falls asleep.
I cannot talk to my partner about it because he gets annoyed with me. He says that I bitch about her screAming to him and then I feel bad about it. But it's just so hard! He doesn't get it cause he goes to work, yes he works hard to provide for us but it means that he's not here for most of the bad times.
Sorry I just had to get that off my chest.
