Hello beautiful parents, it's great to have your audience on this post, you know if there is anything that brings us much joy as a parent is seeing our children in good healthy condition. As a matter of fact, we feel more relax and easy going when they are fine. There are so many untold stories behind this joy that people don't like sharing untill you are there to experience it lets consider some of those times that parents feels so much as their kids are not happy.

When she couldn't sleep late at night

When they are sick;


I only feel as parents brings their wards to hospital, the stress they went through I always feel it at a distance until I'm in it. The sleepless nights we enjoys as baby cries all through seeking for comfort is a nice experience 😊 those ones under 3 years that can't really say what is wrong with them when sick is really challenging because you wouldn't know if the child is having stomach ache or pains at any part of the body, they can't communicate what is really wrong with them to us so we can know how to help.

Late in the night when she was sick

At this age self medication is highly not advised, a paediatrician needs to see the child and examine them to know what really is wrong and gives a prescription that will help relief the child from any health condition diagnosed.

This phase of parenting is really challenging and you won't even find the joy 😜 or have appetite to eat as your child is weak, at this point nothing gives you that joy more than seeing the child gradually recovering from the sickness.

When they refused to eat


Food is very important for everyone in life, it helps us grow in good health but in a situation when a child doesn't eat, they will not look healthy and will be sick. So as parents we try as much as possible to avoid keeping our children hungry, even though a child doesn't eat we will look for any other thing they will like to eat so as to keep them strong.

If they don't eat, we can't eat, if they don't sleep we can't sleep we are worried whenever they are not happy, we are sad whenever they feel discomfort.

When they can't sleep


Most times they cry when they want to sleep or when they are hungry and you will be confused what really does this child want. You will do everything until you finally realized what is wrong, then see how to solve their issues so they will be fine.

Daddy on duty

My daughter will always enjoy as I sing, dance, tell all stories or do everything to make her sleep but to no avail and when she finally sleep, she makes sure you sleep with her so you won't leave her to sleep alone.

When she cries for something you don't know


Imagine your baby crying so loud after changing her diaper and she just wake up from sleep at night and you don't know what is her problem is ah! It is really challenging. You will be confused and so worried, everything possible that will make her not comfortable will be checked immediately but still she still cries. Most times I will just cry with her while trying to calm her down if I don't know what else to do 😉

My ears all day

There was a day she was crying although this day and I find it difficult to know what was really wrong with her, I was stressed up and my face change as I was all alone at home no one to also help check what her problem really was, that was the day I took this picture above.

Most times I imagine if they can talk so they will easily tell we parents what their problems is and they will just be fine, but they don't talk, they only communicate through crying and making some uncomfortable sounds that's when you will detects what really their problem is then try to solve them., I wish I understand babies language ☺️

The joy of parenting


Well done all parents for your kind and loving way you take time to care for your children, your sacrifices is highly appreciated by the one (our creator, Jehovah) who gives us the privilege to take care of our children. He also gives us the strength and ability to care for them and bring them up in a way they should be raised. That is the reason we overlook the challenges of taking care of children and considered the joy of parenthood, the joy we feels is alarming and indeed when we see them happy our heart leap with joy.

Parenting is one of the most wonderful experiences there is. Our children come into the world and give us almost indescribable joy.

You are right, the most difficult stage is when they are babies, since they cannot communicate and we cannot know what they have or if they feel bad. Here it is always advisable to take them to the pediatrician.

We are happy if our children are healthy and happy, otherwise, we will worry like nobody else.

Beautiful pictures showing the great love between mother and child.

Oh that's true our happiness depends on their own good health and happiness 🙂

Better experienced than told. I am glad you are getting used to these joys of parenthood. Your child is doing great. She is not even disturbing you at all. But all the same, you are doing your part to care for her.

The advice you have given are timely especially the one that says that a pediatrician needs to diagnose and prescribes drugs instead of seldmedication. Thank you for sharing. Every stage in their lives still presents different challenges, so brace up for more. Keep learning

Hahahaha 😆 she can disturb for Africa, I still appreciate this stage at some point the day she is quite I'm always worried Lols

Every stage in their lives still presents different challenges, so brace up for more. Keep learning

Thank you, my learning experience continues....
