[quote=Anonymous]DC is 23 months old and i'm 7.5 months pregnant and i work FT. there are days when she really pushes my buttons - like the other night when we were eating out at chicken out and she threw something on the floor for the fifth time and i moved my face right into hers and said "no" in a loud voice to her b/c i was so angry i wanted to scream... my husband said everyone was staring and he thought it wasn't a good way to handle her - he said my voice was exceptionally scary and loud (maybe i did scream?). and today, she continually pushed on my stomach. hard. i know she didn't mean to, and i know she doesn't get it that there's a baby in there, but it actually hurt and i just wanted her to get away from me entirely. i love her to pieces. and i have a lot of help - nanny, maid, part-time cook, and grandparents nearby. but sometimes i get pushed to the edge. what do other parents do in that moment to control their anger and be more centered?[/quote]
