Mum guilt anyone?

Just that really.
mum a mum of 4
ages 15, 13, 7 and 6 months!!

I spend every single day questioning myself. On everything. Did I do enough. Does one feel left out have I let them down etc etc. even guilt over telling my 7 year old to go fetch his own pjz out his draws after his shower whilst I sorted the baby!
honestly I just want to clone myself or grow more arms.
I wish I could give them all the world in every single way but sometimes feel like there’s not enough of me :(

anyone feel like this or am I just pathetic xx
they are hard work sometimes but I adore them so much

I guess mum guilt is normal be kind to yourself it’s difficult with multiple children. Am sure your doing a great job sending you hugs I always feel the same be kind to your self!

Why would you feel guilty about encouraging your 7 year old to get his own pjs?

A 7 year old really should be getting his own pyjamas though?

Alot of mums have mum guilt. I think if you have mum guilt, you must be a pretty good mum to care so much.

I wish that’s what my mum guilt was about. Your post doesn’t read as though you were at the end of your tether and him not getting the pjs resulted in a melt down and shouting fit from you. If you didn’t do this I think you are doing great.

No need to feel guilty our 3 toddlers all get there own clothes now and have there little jobs they like to do. Unfortunately after having our twins I ended up with M.E and I felt so so guilty suddenly all the energy I used to play with them etc gone. Now Ive had to adapt a lot of things i.e games in bed when I feel so bad I can't move so they come into my room, picking up there dirty washing when I can't bend down, awww loads of things but hey the love and cuddles and chats, laughs etc can never be changed and as long as I'm around to be there for all that the rest we muddle along

Guilt of any kind is a choice.
