Bad Moments
I am feeling the bad parenting moments lately. Cason is on his tantrum kicks again....3 days straight. Anything and everything will set this kid off. He was doing great, not even having night terrors anymore which was wonderful. Then I said something to Brett about how nice it's been and BOOM!! And then it puts me in a bad mood and I take it out on everyone else. It's days like these last few I am almost sure there is some sort of something going on with this kid....horrible to say I know but I am venting. Maybe I forgot 2 yrs was a hard age for kids? Although I don't recall Adalie being this bad...hitting and kicking and screaming, maybe I blurred those moments out?? Someone tell me their kid did this? Is there always a hitting and screaming stage to kids?? How long does this thing last?!? I know everything is intensified too at this moment for me because my hormones with a new baby coming are completely off the freakin wall. I feel bad to say that sometimes I feel as though I just don't like the kid...I love him so, so much but hate it when he acts this way and I do not want to be around him. Ugh, this post makes me sound horrible doesn't it?? I feel like I am a parent that everyone says has a bad kid. It's getting to me.

You are NOT a bad mom, not even close. Honestly most people probably go through this-My boys all went through a hitting stage, and MD is starting it up again. Seth, though, I have similar feelings towards. He has been a VERY different type of baby then the other two and it is throwing me through a loop. He hits and screams and bites me and slaps me on the face, then bawls when I tell him no. I have had many days where I put him in bed grateful that he is down for the day and I am done dealing with him. I can't imagine dealing with that when you are pregnant-You are doing amazing-even if you think you are not.
not every kid does it so it's possible that you escaped it with adalie. but it's actually really common although i can't give you any guidelines on how long it'll last. but working at the daycare with all of those two year olds sure taught me it's not all rainbows and butterflies. and we've all been there when we can't stand someone we love. ;-) good luck. i think you're doing great.
I just posted tonight about my 2 yr old boy.
it must be in the air
You're amazing.
lydia oh lydia. man i wish we were neighbors. i love my kids too but i can't stand them most of the time at this age!! seriously. zach and zoey are alwayssssss screaming at the top of their lungs (one of them is doing it right now in fact while kicking the door). just know that you are not alone. i. hate. this. age.
