i hate that it's the first question people asked for a long time after DS was born - is he a good baby? well, yes of course he's a good baby...oh, so he sleeps well then?
what i also hate that is that i have let some of it get to me & even though i know it's not true, i still feel a bit like a failure as a mum because my son does not sleep 'well'.
Meow, that is exactly what I mean. I would be happy to chat to my friend about how hard it is....gosh I'm up more than I am asleep at night & I have a almost 4yr old who does not nap during the day...so no rest for me. But seems everyone wants to talk about how to 'fix it'.........
I think some people feel if their babies are sleeping through, then they're doing a good job. If they admit their babies are waking at night and they don't know what to do, then somehow everyone will think they're not coping. Not saying everyone thinks like this but this is what I have found in my group of friends.
It is annoying though when that's all people have to say about babies though!
