Post Body

I don’t know how to properly explain this, but I’m not as good a father as I thought I would be. I feel inadequate and incapable of taking care of my son alone.

My solo parental leave has been a disaster, and his Mom has had to come home from work or work from home most days. First it was a bottle strike, then the 4 month sleep regression, and now he’s just inconsolable for nap time.

I get so frustrated and feel so incapable of calming him that I go into a downward spiral. I feel like I’m failing my wife and my son, and that I’m just a horrible parent.

Not really sure what I’m looking for in this post, I think I just need to vent.
