Mommy confessions

When my 9-month-old son gets up in the middle of the night, I don't always change his diaper. I know I should, but it wakes him up even more when all I am thinking about is sleep.
Is there anything you do as a mother that you feel guilty about? If so, spill the beans. We're not here to judge. Get it off your chest and feel better!

My sons team ended up 12-0 and winning the championship in baseball this fall. I didn't take a single picture of him playing or even in his uniform.

I threw out a bunch of arts and crafts my kids did in kindergarden by accident =( I really wanted to keep some of it for memories

I do the same thing, but I use Desitin and LOTS of it and he hasn't had a rash or anything, he's also 9 months. Hmm, sometimes I feel guilty when I put him in his playpen with toys and get on the laptop to check email and whatnot for a little while. I feel like I'm ignoring him even though he's playing.

I use to do that as well! But then I couldn't go back to sleep sometimes and I'd force myself to get up and change him. The extra vaseline and desitin did work! :-) Our son's teeth came in pretty early... Everyone kept telling me he was too young to go see the dentist so I didn't take him! It kind of slipped my mind up until recently. We had to wait for his dental coverage to kick it, but now it's finally taken care of. I felt so guilty because I forgot about his precious teeth!

Remember to let those important people in your life know just where they stand! You don't want to end up losing what you value most!
