I just rewrite the original sentence:
"Several mothers I met said
they became depressed when their children did not recover from a cold quickly
blaming it on the poor care they took of their children."
I'm trying to change the sentence into one with direct speech using quotation marks.

The way you've used "blaming" doesn't work in first-person. It'd sound more natural if you broke it up into two sentences, or, if you wanted to keep it in one sentence, use punctuation to separate the clauses. For example:
"I become depressed when my children do not recover from a cold quickly—I blame myself for not taking good enough care of them."
"...the poor care I take of my children" also sounded a bit awkward, so I changed it in the sentence above.

Thank you. I just automatically rewrote the original sentence, but that sounds much nicer!
