Just want everyone to go away!
I'm adding this anonymously because I am ashamed that I even feel this way...but here goes. 😔
My husband and I are living with my in laws right now due to our financial situation. We are first time parents and our sweet son was just born June 22!
I am really struggling with not wanting anyone around our baby except my husband and my mom when she comes to visit. I feel so...territorial? It's weird. Almost like an animal instinct. I just don't want anyone else around him. 😔
The worst part is my husband's grandparents are staying in the same house with us. They arrived June 11 and won't be leaving until July 16. It hasn't even been a month yet and I feel like I'm going crazy!!!
Every time my son cries someone comes up the stairs immediately and asks what is going on. I feel so vulnerable and judged. I know that my husband's family loves me deep down...but I am just so annoyed. I want to learn how to be a mom and enjoy this sacred time with my baby in peace. Instead, I feel like I have an audience.
For example, today I was changing his diaper (which he hates, and always cries about). My husband's mom and grandma barged into my room and started ogling us and asking all these questions! It made me so mad! My son doesn't need all these onlookers for his diaper change! 😡
Uggh. I might be alone in this. 😔 Guess I just really, really needed to vent. 😤🙄🙁
