I don't want my partners family around my baby.
Before anybody accuses me of being selfish or calls me any other nasty names, please listen to my reasons why.
My partners family are full of smokers, every single one of them.
His sister (my SIL) has recently had a baby, and although they were all going outside to smoke, they were coming back into the house stinking of cigarettes and then holding and kissing the baby.
This is not something I want them doing to my baby, because I don't want her breathing in the chemicals on their clothes, or their breath! I am also incredibly wary about anyone kissing her, my family included!
I just know I'm going to be terrified of letting her be passed around all of his family, getting lungfuls of toxins each time, and then coming back to me stinking of smoke.
I have asthma so I already suffer enough, and I don't want her suffering as well.
I really don't want her around them, or anyone that smokes for that matter, but I feel like I have no choice and its backing me into a tiny corner. I feel trapped because I just do not want them holding her!
You may believe I'm being selfish, but I'm trying to keep her safe, and that's proving to be incredibly hard.
I just want to hide her with me forever and she isn't even born yet...
