Losing my rag!!

I really hate myself for losing my rag with my beautiful DS 16 months this morning!! Having had a long, stressful weekend I am feeling very exhausted & stressed. My DS I suppose is picking up on this & is being very clingy & whinging. Instead of reacting how I normally do...distraction...cuddles..etc....I completely lost my rag & got cross that he was like this & did shout. I'm both embarrassed & ashamed I did this...as this is something that happens about twice a week. I was told by my doctor its hormones as I have been coming off synthetic hormones....but I'm not using that as an excuse. Does anyone else have the same problem or can help me stop reacting like this please?? My DS is a very good..well behaved...lovely little boy. I dont deserve a wonderful son like him.

Don't be too hard on yourself. Try and get a break-do you have anyone who could have him for a short time?

No I don't...85% of the time is fine..but I can 'lose it' over the smallest thing. I in no-way harm my DS but it upsets me that I shout & get cross around him.

Even though he is young you could apologise and say 'sorry-mummy is an old cross patch today' and start again.

I have done just that....but I still can't shake how guilty & bad I feel when this happens.
