The feeding is done, the nappy is clean, they’ve been swaddled, rocked and shushed—and yet, the tears keep coming. Your heart starts racing, your head starts spinning with "What am I doing wrong?", and you feel that desperate urge to just make it stop.
If you’ve ever felt exhausted by the pressure to keep your child "happy" at all costs, this conversation is the deep breath you need. It’s a reminder that you don't have to be a magician who makes the sadness disappear; you just have to be a mum who stays.
