Bad mom?!?!
I feel like the world worst mom. I’m a SAHM and my husband as been working so much all week he’s gone before we wake up and home long after the baby goes to sleep. He hasn’t seen the baby since Sunday and I only see him for an hour before we go to sleep. And I’ve been so overwhelmed this week I feel like I’ve dissociated myself from everything, this morning I was so tired I slept until 9:30 and the monitor died over night so when I woke up and rushed to my baby’s room he was already awake and I have to idea for how long. He wasn’t mad he was just rolling around but I feel awful. I feel like I’m failing as a mom I’m barely keeping the house clean too

If he wasn't mad then he's clearly fine. You'd be able to tell if he spent the night in distress. It's good for babies to spend some "me" time in their crib! I always let mine wake up on her own time without going rushing in as soon as I see her moving. Typically it takes her about 20 minutes to actually wake up and call out. And even if he was crying, he clearly survived it. Don't beat yourself up. You are not a bad mom. 💜
You're not a bad mum at all. Most mornings my baby wakes up before me and she just chills why I get a few extra minutes. She's fine, they'll cry if they aren't happy. Sometimes if I am awake before her I just leave her for a bit so I can drink a quick brew before mum mode starts 🤣

You're definitely not a bad mom, you're just an exhausted one! It's not easy at all do it all by yourself )- talking from experience AND I've also felt as a bad mom about a million times
