In the morning, my son’s diaper was already clean: when I found out what was happening during the night, I was speechless

I am a single mother, I live alone, and I take care of my eight-month-old son by myself. He is very active and often wakes up during the night.

One morning, when I woke up, I was first surprised that he hadn’t woken up during the night. Then, when I went to change his diaper, I had a big surprise: it was already changed. The bottle was also empty.

At first, I thought that maybe I had changed his diaper and given him his bottle in the middle of the night without remembering it.

But the next day, the same scene repeated itself: another changed diaper, another empty bottle. And this time, I had absolutely no memory of doing it. It started to get concerning.

What if I was sleepwalking? That was the only explanation that seemed logical to me. In the following nights, my son continued to sleep peacefully without waking up, and every morning everything was clean and tidy. That’s when I decided to stay awake to understand what was really going on.

I stayed awake all night, and finally, I discovered what was happening at night. I was speechless…

When I finally discovered the truth, I had trouble believing it.

By staying awake that night, I quietly watched my six-year-old daughter enter her brother’s room.

She changed his diaper with astonishing precision for her age, and gave him his bottle.

She wasn’t even tired.

It seemed like it was part of her routine, that she knew exactly what she had to do.

When she saw that I was awake, she smiled shyly at me and said, “I wanted to help you, mommy, so you could sleep.”

Tears welled up in my eyes.

She had quietly taken it upon herself to help me, without me knowing, like a little mom.
