Reality Check
It is almost impossible to be communicative and positive with your child 100% of the time, and not all your interactions with your child will be powerful interactions. Sometimes, you will not be able to slow down or let the tension go, or simply be able to think of the proper response. And that's OKAY! You are new to parenting, and you are trying and doing your best with the tools you have. Do a weekly checkpoint by yourself or with your partner and ask, How often am I able to use the tools I know? And track your progress regularly. And be easy on yourself, you're doing it :)
