| OP, did you also recently post about installing car seats? |

| I now look back on my life a few years ago when I had a newborn (born Dec 15), was recovering from a c-section and dealing with a 4 year old who was attending a germ-filled pre-k class every day. It is an ABSOLUTE MIRACLE that we were able to put the Christmas decorations away without any help from friends or family or people that tagged along when visiting us. An absolute miracle. |

OP, I like how you think that your single and childless friends have nothing better to do than take your tree down for you. Or is that so they won't be able to call you out for not being able to do it yourself?

| Weird. You invite people to come over so they can HELP YOU. Friend brings someone along, to help too, I presume. You get mad because they were rude. You sound like the rude one. I get the angst about baby being exposed, but as long as there is no contact you'll be fine. |

I don't think OP is a bitch.
1. OP is an over-anxious FTM. 2. OP is self-centered. 3. OP does not like the acquaintance that came over un-invited, so though that person was trying to be friendly and interested, OP was looking for reasons to be offended. |

| OP is a self centered idiot who should do her own work instead of making her friends do it because she clearly can't manage her life. OP, we all have newborns. Life goes on. Learn how to manage. |

Personally, I'd love to hear the other side of things...
"Hey Jane, I know we have plans on Saturday, but my friend Larla emailed saying she needs "help" taking down her Christmas decorations. Do you mind coming with so I have an out? I don't want to be there all day doing her sh*t but I haven't even been over to see the baby yet." Jane: "seriously? She can't do her own cleaning?" Friend: "yep. She's hopeless and whacked but I've known her forever. I'll feel bad if I don't at least show, but I don't want to waste a whole day on her crap. Thinking if we go together, she'll either be irritated I brought you and am not paying full attention to her, or at least realize I have other things to do." Jane: "sure. Babies are cute anyway. If she ends up giving us a hard time, I'll just tell her I have a cold so we need to go." Friend: thanks! You're the best! We'll just swing in and out, maybe help for a little bit- then we'll go for lunch. Deal? |

| Wow... OP, you are just entitled. You asked for help to do chores around your house!! Seriously?? Are you that SIL from a previous post that schedules time slots for baby visits and requires visitors to bring food/do chores? |

| Do you sit around all day and expect everyone else to do your work? Seriously, OP, WOW! |
