Yes all them Instagram posts of us smiling my make up done up my hair perfect and all for a perfect snap but in reality….
The tears the tantrums, the tiredness the stress the anxiety. I look at these mum posts on social media and think that’s the ideal parenting when actually in reality… no ones perfect.
I genuinely thought I was a bad mum because my child doesn’t do certain things other children her age does. Questions through my head as follows:
Am I a good mum?
Have I done something wrong?
Am I able to cope?
When actually I’m the best mum to my girl. Social media fools us all! In future I will be doing what I feel best for my little girl. You’ll always have them mums that think they’re perfect but in actual fact there’s room for mistakes in parenting you just need to learn from them mistakes. Doesn’t make you a bad mum at all! So for anyone that needed to hear this, you’re doing fantastic keep it up 💕
