I would definitely say that losing my patience is my worst parenting habit...

My son is a year old but he has always struggled with keeping food/formula down, which means that I deal with a whole lot of vomit on a regular basis. I definitely think that my worst parenting habit coincides with this. I definitely find myself losing my cool whenever my little one decides to throw-up. I've tried to count to ten and all those things but in the moment it just doesn't help. My husband, on the other hand, is very patient, which usually makes me look like the "bad guy". I would definitely have to say I need to work on my patience.

Is there a medical reason for your son's inability to keep foods down? Have you had him examined by a pediatrician? At 3 weeks old my son had that problem too. Come to find out he had what is called Pyloric Stenosis. It is a thickening in the lining of his stomach that prevented him from keeping anything down as well as passing anything through. The pediatrician said it usually happens with first born boys but mine was the 2nd born.
