[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is awful. Two thoughts:

1) if this was going to happen, glad it happened now before she had more access, info, pictures, etc. You would feel worse if she crossed this boundary a year from now. Now you can still make a clean break.

2) you have a wonderful new child with whom you can establish a loving and protective relationship. Remember that your daughter is safe and your focus should be on your well being so you can be a good mom.

Lastly, please don’t guilt yourself if your joy is overshadowed right now. You have your whole life to enjoy your child. Many, many people have a crappy postpartum experience for some reason or another, and it does not define you.[/quote]

This.

Your daughter is safe. The knowledge of her existence isn’t something you can control but you can enforce the boundary with your mom and resume no contact.

Make sure you have a plan for managing your mental health during this time…your last trauma and postpartum hormones can be a doozy. Lean on your support network.

Remember your past is not your future.[/quote]
