[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's because you have these thoughts that you can be comforted that you're probably a good mom. A bad mom wouldn't feel any guilt at all. [/quote] This. [/quote] I disagree! I mean, on the one hand, whatever you need to make yourself feel better, but on the other....guild does not equal good mom and lack of guilt does not equal bad mom. IMO, guilt is usually about anxiety. I don't feel guilty because already know that I'm not going to be a perfect mom (since I'm not a perfect person). I already know that I can't do everything all at once. I already believe that how my kids turn out does not depend on whether I cloth diapered or formula fed, so there's no need to obsess or feel guilt over those decisions. It doesn't make me a bad mom![/quote]
