[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry OP. There’s something about a new baby that makes some family members go nuts and totally steam roll over the mother. I honestly don’t get it, but I had a similar experience with a grandparent inviting relatives over to my house without asking amongst other things (like even showing up at the hospital while I was in labor and expecting to be let in the room even though I had explicitly said it would only be me and DH). It’s like they get an idea in their head of how things are going to go and think the person who birthed the baby needs to just step aside so they can do as they please. I’m sure your uncle feels terrible, but it was your mom’s fault for setting this all up. I still remember the postpartum underwear and leaking milk and being unshowered/exhausted. All I wanted was to hibernate and recover. I vow to have zero expectations of my DD if she chooses to have children someday. [/quote]
