My 31 month old!

So.....lets see....The last couple of weeks Briana has given me hell to take a bath or a shower, change her diaper, and get dressed to go out. She would not get near the tub or shower at all. Now, she loved her bubble baths and played with her bath toys....I used to have to bribe her to get out, because she just loved it so much. Now, she screams bloody murder and gets hysterical. Now to get her out of her pj's and go out to run errands, or just get out of the house is another problem I am having. I do not understand why, she used to be the first one out the door. Today, was bad, we had to go to a friends funeral and leave the house an hour and 1/2 to get to the cemetery on time and not miss the services. Well, Briana had other plans, she did not want us to change her clothes or diaper, we were running about 15 Min's behind and I just got fed up and grabbed her and forced her to get dressed, she was crying and screaming, poor kid. I know I did this wrong and you all can reprimand me and tell me I am a bad mother, but I've done everything the Dr., family, and friends have told me. I am just losing my patience and running out of ideas. I am so glad George is more cool collected and has more patience then me. He did have a breakthrough with her over the week-end, but today we are back to where we started.

I do not know what else to do....I am so frustrated.

(wanted to document this for future reference on her)

No reprimand from me! :) I understand! "How far can I push?" We're just getting over that stage.
HUGS! Hang in there and you can vent all you want!

Aw, don't be so hard on yourself, Yvie. It sounds like she's just testing you to see what she can get by with -stick to your guns and eventually she'll get tired of fussing about the baths and she'll find something else to drive you crazy with.

Hang in there....its the age.....and we as mothers have a right to loose our temper and do what we have to do to control the situation. Do not be too hard on yourself for loosing your paitance......trust me.....I have been there and done that with two kids.......
