I am a me type of Mommy. I pumped, breastfeed and formula feed my child. I pumped enough to store for future and my husband would feed him formula bottles when I was tapped out sleep. I am a vaccine mom. I say a little prayer before my son gets his shots each time and I watch him like a hawk afterwards. TO ME it is worth it. I am a cry it out mom. Yeah it sucks sometimes but it's worked out in MY favor. He gives me a smooth hour playing in his play pen with no interruptions to do whatever it is I need to do around the house.
I am a cosleep and baby bed mom. Sometimes I just don't feel like getting out of my bed for night feedings so he sleeps in bed with us. Other nights I need some "adult time" and I kick his little ass out. LOL. I am a "his first pair of real shoes are white hard bottoms". I am a when the doctor says he can start eating food he ate everything! Fruits and veggies first and later meats.
I am a google mom. I will google the shit out of everything that's going on with my son. Either scare myself enough to call my mother and mother in law OR google enough to calm my nerves. I'm a wipe his mouth off with the bottom of my shirt mom. I lick my finger to clean his face in public mom. Sometimes I don't want to mom and I hide out in the bathroom mom.
I'm a daycare/nanny service, public school mom. I am a school sport, outdoor activities mom. I am a we are not having a birthday party until he is 4 or 5 mom.
I AM A ME TYPE OF MOMMY AND THAT'S OK!
I said all of this to say as long as you are doing your best to take care of your kids, be the best YOU MOM that you can be! There is already enough to fight and argue about in this world, let's not gang up on mommies. We already second guess most of what we do, as a first time mom, because this is our first rodeo! But be the best! Take your feelings away and do what's best for your child.
You ARE a great "TYPE" of mommy and F those who say otherwise!
