Yes, I am a Bad Mother

I laid her on the bed, turned around to get a diaper and wipes, and then it was too late. She fell. Brandy was coming in the room and saw it happen, but just couldn’t get there to stop it.

She has a goose egg on her head, but nothing else. The only reason she cried was that I was screaming. Mom had her in her arms and she was fine, but she heard me and got scared.

I gave her a dose of Tylenol and watched her for a while. She is sleeping now, but I keep touching her to make sure she wakes. Poor thing, her mommy lets her fall and then won’t let her sleep.

((hugs)) That doesn’t make you a bad mother, accidents happen. You’d be a bad mother if you weren’t so concerned about it…Don’t worry, kids are tough, it’s always hard to see them get hurt but she’ll be fine…You are a great mommy! Mel

aww this happened with one of my girls a couple weeks ago!!!!

RYN I’m just devastated, my dad says it’s my own fault, but my mom just called and I told her what happened, and she said if I come over tonight she’s going to give me 200 to replace what was stolen. I love her so much, she can’t afford it, and I tried to refuse, but she started crying when I told her… Mel
