Mom Guilt

Image
It feels like a pit in my stomach. The dreaded Mom Guilt. You do your best to provide for your child but sometimes it just doesn't feel like enough. I'm at a crossroads because I don't want to stop breastfeeding my baby. However, after a trip to the Emergency Room this week, my doctors are recommending medications that are not breastfeeding-safe. They also recommended rest so the house is more of a mess than usual. I even was in tears hooked up to my IV not because of the pain & tests, which were excruciating, but because I had to leave my baby girl unexpectedly. I don't really have any words of wisdom today. Just wanted to share so maybe another Mom out there doesn't feel so alone in their experiences. 💜
