something I do is pick two outfits the night before and only let my daughter choose from those two. Sometimes asking a child too many questions at once, makes them more anxious. You will get through this, soon she will be old enough to do more things for herself. Big hugs

Being a mom is the greatest privilege in the world but it’s very very hard at times.

Watching this because mom guilt is keeping me from getting to sleep right now. The frustration over a simple task that we couldn’t get done because of toddler emotions. And to have a fight with my partner over it on top of that. Parent life is seriously hard! Lying in bed whispering I’m sorry to my toddler… Crying over your video because it’s so understandable. And reassuring to see that this is indeed normal parent life. We rock 🥺🥹

Definitely normal toddler-ness. Two tips: For getting dressed on particularly rough days I'll act totally normal and put undies on my kids heads, and socks on their ears (sometimes mine too) then continue getting ready to go until the giggle so much and tell me I did it wrong. I act totally caught off gaurd a d have them show me how to do it right. My oldest is 4 and my youngest is almost 2. Also, on super challenging mornings sometimes we "rewind" and start over. I explain I'm frustrated. We walk backwards to our "starting" point to get giggles going then try again. So far that trick has worked 100%of the time.

Okay, 1, the way she said “okayyyyy” when she picked out the shoes killed me 🤣🤣🤣 2, the relief I saw in your face when she was dressed and ready girl we all felt that these toddlers man 😮‍💨 3, sometimes I feel like a bad mom when my son is having a day/morning/minute like Arrow was having. It makes me feel like I’m not equipping him with the right strategies to know how to deal or cope or whatever in that moment. It’s so nice to see that other moms have it the same way, and it’s just how kiddos can be sometimes. They’re still learning, not giving us a hard time but having a hard time. This video literallt brought me to tears knowing that we’re not the only ones. Solidarity gf 💛💛💛💛

Yes! The overwhelming emotions are for real. As a toddler mum your life gets really tough. There are some moments when giving away positive energy to bring up a kid is hard because you have none left ( in that moment) although a kid is a ray of sunshine who imparts positive energy to you, you’re an adult who has her own set of things and needs, which do get compromised. That being said, motherhood is divine and magical.

And I was convinced I had a defective toddler, like her system has short circuit and I have to take her back to the shop. But it makes you feel so much less crazy and ALONE when you know that this isn’t just your kid, and it isn’t just you that wants to also just cry. My heart it so filled with love for you and arrow for opening up your life to us and also that it will get better. It’s not just me. And this is not forever.

I really value that you are super honest with your life as a mom. It's really refreshing. It also helps those who are on the fence about having kids, to see if it's really for them, based on parents' good & bad days. ALSO, watching super nanny episodes on KZbin actually gives really good suggestions for discipline, ex time outs etc. You can also try to help your daughter when she's overstimulated. Telling her: -Look at me. -Let's breath together. Deep breaths. -Then rewarding her for calling down Then it could be easier to get her to do what she wants.

I love the whole “It’s important to take a minute to yourself. A couple hours every couple days to recoup, reset, and refresh your mind. I don’t want to be judged for feeling like it can be stressful to be a parent sometimes. A lot of what we see on the internet in the lens of motherhood is all the amazing parts of it, which there are amazing parts. But nobody talks about the hard days. Nobody talks about how there’s difficult days. I’m honored to be a mother and I wouldn’t change it for the world. You can still absolutely love, cherish, and honor something and still feel overwhelmed, frustrated, stressed, and sometimes sad. Without it totally blacking out all the good. A lot of the mom guilt comes from having to balance things like work/life while also feeling like you aren’t totally in control of your toddler. As a parent you’re “in charge” but - a toddler is learning all these emotions and how to express themselves so in a way- they are in control because you’re helping them learn how to navigate all this and sometimes toddlers have a difficult time with simple things and as a parent you have to be there for your them.” Literally saved that to my notes to get me through hard times lol you’re the best

Just a tip I had heard for getting dressed was to pick 2 outfits and offer do you want to wear this or that, less overwhelming. Also there is nothing wrong with your kiddo going out in pajamas, if they have clothes on I say you’re good.

You're absolutely right to remind yourself it's just a phase and, to be honest, to put some distance between you when you can is also smart as it gives you both a chance to reset. It might feel wrong at the time but once we've reunited, I usually find my little one and I are both much more tolerant towards each other. Arrow is lucky to have such a good mummy!

This needed to be discussed! Thank you for being so honest and open. It really does help to know we are all in this together. This needs to be normalized!

I've got a 2yo and 5yo, and I love seeing content like this. It can be really hard. Sometimes they don't want to leave the house, then they don't want to go back home. Their moods change so fast and I'm trying my best to raise them lovingly and show as much patience as I can but it can be really hard

You’re an amazing mama. So patient and kind. When my toddler fights getting dressed usually giving her a bottle or snack while I dress her helps. I’ll also close her door and sit down calmly with her while she lets her big feelings out and just let her know “I know you don’t want to get dressed but we have to do we can go to grandmas”. And I’ll repeat it. Eventually she calms down and I get her dressed and then open the door so she can leave. ❤️🙏

Just came across your channel and I freaking LOVE you girl 💖 Thank you for keeping it real, authentic and raw. From one full time single Momma to another you help me tremendously especially when I feel alone, unheard and like I'm barely keeping it together 🥴

I cry out of frustration more than I'd like to admit. My daughter is 2. And she is amazing I love her more than anything. But my boyfriend and I moved to a completely different city where we have no family or friends. So there is no in person support system if I feel like I need help. Even if there was I'm not the type to take it and I'll work around everything to stay with my daughter or take her with me 🤡. My patience has days where it just dissapears and I feel terrible for it but I know I'm doing the best I can. This video helped me feel a lot better and a lot less alone. A reminder I really needed today. Thank you for your videos ❤️

Sometimes if my child is having a rough day, I choose the outfit and my child picks out some fun socks! There are variety packs with animals, characters, etc. Also phrasing things like, "You can put your t-shirt on by yourself, or Mama can help you put your shirt on. Do you want to do it yourself, or should Mama help you?," instead of "Do you want to put your shirt on?" Can help a lot! And of course some days are just rough no matter what ♥️ You are doing amazing and being authentic!

I have a 21 month old and this is my life too. Sometimes your plans go out the window, you have a really unproductive day and it's tough to deal with. Nice to know we're all the same and no one has a perfectly well behaved child all the time xx

Yes 🙌🏼 I have an 18 month old and I am in graduate school working on getting my doctorate. The amount of guilt I feel whenever I have to meet deadlines and feel like I’m not giving 100% to my daughter happens a lot, especially when we have tough days. I feel this as working mom🥲

Thank you so much for making this video even though it was probably so hard to film and edit. It’s so nice to see the reality of toddlers portrayed and for people to know that it’s not all rainbows and sunshine all the time. I have twins, they turned two in September, and my son is speech delayed and only really can say mama and dada and watching your videos has seriously helped so much and keeps me positive and hopeful. I’m babbling but I just wanted to say I really appreciate and look forward to your videos every week ❤ your an amazing mom
