Moment of kindness today…

Was in Tesco today with my 6 month old baby, she’s poorly and was screaming and screaming. Lots of people were looking at me and her. She has screamed all day and I just broke down in tears with worry and because I feel so sorry for her.

A lovely checkout operator came and gave me a hug and another told me I was doing a good job. It really lifted me.

Theres a lot of animosity for babies and parents out there and even on this forum and I was so grateful for the kindness in that moment that I just wanted to share!

Awww OP, sorry your baby is poorly and you’ve had such a difficult day but that’s lovely you found kindness and support in your hour of need. I hope she’s getting better and asleep and that you have a decent night 🌺

Poorly babies are exhausting in a way that few other things are, it’s really rough.

Lovely story OP, just goes to show, little things really do mean a lot.
A quick hug and a kind word when one is feeling upset, goes a long way to brightening the day.
Thanks for sharing, I hope your little one is feeling better and that you all have a good night :)

Sorry to hear that your little one is poorly @Tomorrowtomorrowtomorrow.

I hope she settles for the night, so you both get some rest, and by tomorrow she starts to improve and will make a swift recovery.
Kind thoughts to you.
