Okay I’m feeling like such a rubbish mum tonight and just ready to cry..me and my little one are like attached to each other they are 12 month and my only child we do everything together they spend a few hours with grandparents on a weekend but other than that I look after them..tonight they aren’t settling for bed unless they see me Iv tried controlled crying but that hasn’t worked if I leave a room they instantly cry so Iv got to distract them before I go out. I love the bond we have but hate how upset they get when I leave. I feel like Iv been a bad mum. I’m a single mum aswell I just feel like Iv done it all wrong and should have been more distant or something. Sorry or the long post I just needed to get it off my chest before I burst into tears x

Well done it takes strong parent to try new things no matter how hard it may be! Controlled crying gets easier day by day the first days will be awful.. your baby isnt hurting or in danger just clingy and thats normal your the mother there world thats fine but you need a break and time to rejuvenate too in order to be a wonderful mum!
Your doing great you shouldnt feel guilty atal xxx
Oh bless you. Your child is still a baby, loving them and being there for them is the best thing you can do for them. It doesn’t make you a bad mum, it makes you a mum who loves her child. My youngest is 2 and she still won’t settle for bed without a cuddle. Enjoy the bond and ride it out. I promise it gets easier x
Don’t feel bad for how close you want your relationship to be with your child, my daughter and I are sooo close and I think thats because when I split with her dad, I had her sleep in my bed for the best part of a year, everyone parents differently and works different for each parent. I had her in with me for my own benefit as I was scared if anything happened during the night, I wouldn’t reach her in time. It was hard getting her into her own bed but I stuck with it and it eventually worked. Your baby is just used to having the con for of knowing your there, maybe try and put a teddy near so they can get used that as a comfort. There is no wrong in doing what you do but like Amy says you need a break and your baby is in no real distress. I dont regret having my daughter in bed with me for such a long time because I did what I felt was right and she has not suffered in anyway for it. We can’t sleep in the same bed now as she is a total bed hogger and she is like a human hot water bottle so in the winter when I’m freezing, she’s star fishing across my kingsize bed with the covers kicked off while I’m freezing hanging on for dear life! Then she wakes up and tells me she didnt sleep cos I hogged the bed! The cheek haha Xx
