[quote=Anonymous]I have a newborn and hired a PT doula to come 3 days a week so I can have a break. My baby is very easy ( I’ve been told) but it’s still exhausting and I felt like I needed a break to nap, run errands, or just have some time to myself. We have had family in town this past week. They have made multiple comments about me hiring help and have been making me feel bad about. My husband sticks up for me but my mom has made rude comments about her never needing help. My sister has also made rude remarks about it. Another thing is I was told by many friends to get the Snoo. I have loved it and my baby sleeps very well in it. They stayed with us last week and made rude comments about it being “ lazy parenting” and that I don’t hold him enough. I also follow on-demand        (except for a strict feeding routine) and they have talked about how they had their babies on a scheduled and sleeping through the night. My mom has said multiple times since then how important it is to hold your baby. I know I should just ignore their comments but it gets to me. How do you deal with rude comments about your parenting?
