So we just got back from Lana's dentist appt not too long ago.. and she has a few cavities :(. Yes, I am guilty for keeping her on the bottle for too long.. but damnit I'm just too weak. I told her no more mum-mum when we got home and she cried hysterically for it and this time I stood my grounds.. but my mother ended up giving it to her. Kind of irked me a bit but I'm in no mood to argue with her today.

I'm feeling pretty crappy. I feel like I failed as a mother. Should've taken her off the bottle a LONG time ago.. and now she has to suffer bc of me. I have to take her back soon so she can get some work done and they have to put her to sleep :(. UGH I hate this.

Why do you put yourself down like that? It doesn't matter it is just a learning lesson. Um, there are many other reasons to get cavities besides from the bottle. No you did a very good job raising such a very adorable girl by yourself. You have to give yourself a couple of taps on your back. Sis every little one has needs.

True, but in our case.. I know it's from the bottle. I've tried taking her off many times but failed every time bc it's so hard. You really have to not give in but I do all the time. Oh well, like you said.. it's a learning lesson indeed.

Dude I brush Lana's teeth all the time! But I think it's the milk that's reallyyy hurting her teeth bc she likes to fall asleep with the bottle in her mouth :/

:( I'm guilty of this too but I haven't taken her to the dentist yet. With her, it's just so hard but luckily, she likes brushing her teeth. So when vacation comes, I'll finally have time to go cold turkey on her. stay strong mama! i know you feel.

Hey, don't worry too much. These are just her baby teeth. The new ones will grow in a couple years, just make sure you're more strict on her then.

Being a mother is sooo rewarding but so stressful at times as well. I am sure that when you become a mom, you will be a great one :)
