Oh dont be so hard on yaself.... Im not on meds or anything... and Iv done that before!

Try and have a little laugh to yourself about it... no harm came to her and shes none the wiser.. as for that woman who gave you daggers, Bollox to her!

 

[Melanie]

Awww Beanie, i know its an automatic reaction but please try not to beat yourself up about it! Cally is so little she has no idea that it happened and you wont be the last person to do it.
As for the social knocking on the door, i cant see that happening and even if it did you wouldnt have any problems, the little ones are well looked after.

 

[Squiglet]

Aww Beanie... Don't beat yourself up over it... These things happen and your girls are beautiful and healthy so social services can't do a thing.

 

[DebbieM]

Oh, we all d do mad things at times hun. Of course SS won't be coming after you!!!!!!!

 

[muppetmummy]

Don't worry! I'm really forgetful too and on prozac ( though I think it's the pnd not the pills), the other day I was walking to school and totally forgot about James, he had wandered off in another direction and I didn't notice for over 5 mins! Lucklily another mum found him looking for me! I get lost in my thoughts really easily
I was on a bus the other week and was really paranoid I'd get on or off it without Logan!

Aww hun try not to be too hard on yourself!
Some people actually choose to leave their babies in the car! At least yours was a genuine mistake!

 

[fran_23]

Please dont beat yourself up as the others have said, it was a genuine mistake it was obviously a couple of mins at the most and she is absolutely fine! to be honest i have seen ppl leave there babies in the car for at least 10 mins on purpose when they have popped in tesco express, I am skatty at the best of times, if i had a car i dont doubt i would have done this myself! Just try and have a giggle to yourself about it and put it behind you..there are far far worse things happening to children (and not by accident)

if it helps i actually did it the other way round once when kiara was small.i strapped her in the car seat and sat her in the hallway,the dog distracted me n i got in the car and started it upand was reversing down the drive before i noticed i went back and kiara was sat asleep in the carseat none the worse.i think every mum has lapses in concentration cos we are human.

PS when i was a baby my mum left me outside a shop in my pram..she bought what she wanted left and walked past me..walked about 2 mins down the road until she realised she had left me there

awww

im not on any meds or anything but a few months ago i went to asda, and when i had finished i put leah in her carseat and then set off home.
when i got home, i went to take her out and realised i hadn't fastenedh her in and the carseat was just free on the seat.
i cried too! i couldnt stop thinking what would have happened if i had a little bump

 

[charlie84]

Aww

My mum once left my sister sat in the seat of the trolley in the supermarket and walked out with me and my brother and the shopping, she didnt realise till she was out the door and of course the supermarket had those doors one way in one way out. So she had to go back throught the entrance and through the shop to get her Obviously funny now but not so funny then.

 

[Tara & Liam]

I've done that!!! But I am a terrible mother and didn't cry afterwards.

Beanie, it was a mistake, please don't beat yourself up about it. Perhaps the other things you went on the meds for are making you feel worse about it?

Lots of love and hugs to you and your two STUNNING daughters

 

[lauramumof2]

Awww, beanie, it was a genuine mistake.

 

[Princess_Puddles]

Honestly don't beat yourself up about it Beanie, It was a mistake!! Social services wouldn't get involved hun, it's not like it was done on purpose on numerous occasions and long periods of time, it was a one off mistake

 

[beanie]

thanks guys, I went into my old work and spoke to my friends, and they and you have helped me see that I over reacted and that it was a silly mistake. My blood just ran cold though at the thought of her being left in the car and I just wanted to get to her,plus I was really embarrassed and worried about what people were thinking. I guess I have a good story to tell Cally (this is the second time I forgot her, the first was she was a newborn and asleep in her moses basket and I got me and Seren in the car and then realised, it runs in the family, my mum left her baby brother at the shops for ages). I need to sort my head out though, last night I was trying to put Seren in Cally's pyjamas and wondering why they didn't fit.

Beanie, it was a mistake, please don't beat yourself up about it. Perhaps the other things you went on the meds for are making you feel worse about it?

yeah I think I would normally laugh about it and what a ditz I am whereas this morning I was so angry and disgusted with myself.
