[quote=Anonymous]My mother did this when I had a newborn. Every day she had someone else coming over to our house (we lived right next door and shared the yard/porch/driveway etc.) who I was expected to engage with. We have two dogs who I had to manage around these people and who I couldn’t let out for these visits (some were eight hours long) and my husband was working long hours with no paternity leave. I had no meaningful help and I was exhausted. It was very hard for me to breastfeed and settle in when someone was constantly there. I think one visit is obnoxious but not relationship ruining, but her response to your (normal) reaction was unacceptable. [/quote]
