What is your biggest fear as mum?
Mums biggest fear. This is something people ask regularly. Now as new parents the biggest fear is doing something wrong or feeling like a failure. Its something we all feel at some point I know I did a lot. I also knew I loved my child more than anything in world, We all do. So when I had Lexi-Rose all those fears from TJ came back, Oh my how would I cope with 2 children but I knew I could it.
Biggest fear realisation
Lexi was a small baby with complications during my pregnancy. After my C-section I thought everything was ok we was free to go. Only after a few weeks she wasn’t gaining weight like TJ had. I thought maybe she was just petite like myself and the women in the family. Unfortunately a year later my worst fears would become a reality.
Lexi first year
Lexi still wasn’t gaining weight at a normal rate it was very slow, she was still very small. I asked the GP about her hands and feet always being a blue tinge, Why she was always tired and that she didn’t have great appetite. I was told maybe she was just small and not a bigger eater, Saying I was just used to the way TJ ate he had a large appetite.
The fight begins
We went back and forth to the doctors, countless times. They thought I was just a paranoid mum but I wasn’t. I knew something was not right with Lexi. Nobody wanted to listen to me but as her mum I knew. I always tell people now your the mum you know you’re child best fight and get them to listen. So this mums biggest fear was coming true.
