I think I’m failing at this mum malarkey. Everyone says I’m not. But I must be. Otherwise Shy would be adjusting better right?
Conjunctivitis, thrush and now she’s caught my chest infection. Her 6 week old body has already had more prescriptions than I’ve had in the last year. I don’t like giving her all these unnatural things but right now, it’s the only option. I feel terrible.
She’s got antibiotics we don’t know whether she will be allergic to until i try them. This does not fill me with confidence.
I’m scared. And upset. I just want her to be healthy.
My first had a blocked and infected tear duct at five days old. We had to drive all over the tiny neighboring town to try to find her prescription. A friend’s baby had the same issue AND thrush. You aren’t failing. You’re experiencing a trial by fire that seems more than a little unfair! Prayers that things start to smooth out soon.
