I am stressed out. Baby just turn 1 and these 2 weeks I have difficulties putting her to bed. She's calm but she can't fall asleep. I work very early in the morning and last night I carried and rocked her for more than 4 hours. I'm exhausted and screamed and yelled at her but she just looked at me helplessly.... I feel very guilty. I cried and rocked her to sleep.. she finally slept... I'm a bad mum. I'm not sure what to do anymore.exhausted mum with useless husband.

Awwwww...Big hugs mummy. It's actually a phase. This happened to me too. But when he was about 11 months old. I never knew what happened. Was it tteething was it yummy ache.my only advise is stay calm and be patient. It will pass.

Were there many stimulation before her bedtime? Could she be hungry that why she was unable to doze off? Don't blame yourself mummy Many times kids have those days that they are harder to coax to sleep too.

No mom is a bad mom. Give baby and yourself sometime to over come this period. Have you anyone who can help? You are a good mom and you shouldn't lash out on yourself.

Awww mummy. Big hugs to you.
