We've had a lot of very trying times with Jacob lately and I have really felt the need to vent or that I will totally lose my marbles, yet like you, I feel guilty that I find myself getting upset, angry, frustrated or impatient.

Every day I say the same things "I can't believe he's really here" and tell him how much I love him. Having said that, I still get upset like every other parent as I mentioned.....it's hard as a it's a real conflict of emotions for me. I feel desperately need in tools to help me through the tough times, yet guilty that I should need them at all - as his Mummy, I should always know what the problem is and how to fix it, and I should never lose my patience with him because he's such a special little bean........
