So I'm feeling like the worst mum right now 😔 long story short, I have a 7 year old girl awaiting a asd assessment, we have been trying to get help for a long time now and I felt like nobody would listen and take us seriously, but a few weeks ago we had to have her admitted to hospital for her own safety she was basically using her head to break out of a patio door, was hyperventilating and we just couldn't calm the situation and since then we are moving forward with getting some help and hopefully a diagnosis ( been told to expect at least a year)
But the reason I'm feeling so bad we have just booked her in with a childminder one day a week (sat) to give us (hubby, older daughter and son) some time together as we never get any quality time with them, but why do I feel so guilty about it, I'm beating myself up thinking I'm failing my daughter but we just need a break ðŸ˜
