I do not change my sons diaper when he wakes up in the middle of the night… I leave it until the morning and its completely FULL of pee and has leaked a little on his clothes… I know I’m not the only one who does this!!!!
I’m home everyday all day with my son, even if I have the time I think I do less house work.
When I’m at home I stay in my PJ’s all day!!
My son is almost 10 months old and he still sleeps in our bedroom… not in our bed just in our room!!

I never cried when my son was born. I had a C-section and when the doctor showed me my son over the curtain for the first time.. I had no tears, I feel bad, I wish I woulda cried a little… I cry when I watch people on TV having their babies, what the heck is that!!?!!!
I didn’t cry either when my daughter was born. I was so out of it, I couldn’t even talk. I think it is from the shock of the C-section. Don’t blame yourself hon! You were cut open!!
to all you mother out there dont forget to take care of yourself take time for you you are a mother 24/7 that nver changes nomatter what they can never take that away from you but you can loose your own identity real quick if you for get that you are a wife a freind or a sister please take that time your children will always need you no matter how old they are you need to keep you the person you were before you had your kids take it frome someone who knows happy belated mothers days take lots of them
Out of your top confessions the first 3 apply to me and I must admit it’s nice to read that i’m not the only one… my son doesn’t often wake in the night anymore but I do not change him when he does because if I do he might wake up fully and not go back to sleep … very selfish of me but I do tell myself he needs the sleep as much as me *lol*… and I do waay less housework now I think then when I worked full time… for one thing its hard not to want to spend your time playing with them once they are old enough to giggle and feeding and diaper changes seem to eat away your time as well and its so easy to rationalize when you do have a bit of time that you need ME time not cleaning time
and pj’s and sweats seem appropriate enough when your only company is your baby *lol* they love us regardless if we dress up for them or not so why not be comfy 
I think it all comes down to learning to balance what is good for our child and ourselves and not other peoples opinions on what is right… I’ve had many people tell me things I should do differently but they work for me and my son is healthy and happy and in the long run that is all that matters 
Love it Leigh, thanks for the comment!
i was just search facebook and found your web page, so my question is being a new mom and my maternity leave almost being over in a few months i’ve started to think about not going back to work, i love being with my daughter and i don’t think i could let someone else look after her, i was just wondering what others thoughts are with leaving your child with a babysitter
Hi Jayla, I wouldn’t leave my son with a stranger.. never, even if I had to go on welfare. Think of all your options.. can your mom, dad, sister or friend babysit? Do you HAVE to go back to work? Can you work part-time instead? Can you work on the weekends? Start your own business.. But if you have to leave her at a daycare, do your research.. find a good one with a license and first-aid. I started working for myself with AVON, where are you located.. I’d love to get you started and making extra income… if you’re into that!
