I don’t always want help.
So this is gonna sound super rude, but it’s getting on my last nerve that people take over when I’m trying to do things for my daughter. I understand I had a massive surgery 2 weeks ago and should be recovering (she was born via emergency C-section), but when people take over whatever I try to do, it makes me feel inadequate.
My mom does it the most. I try to do things, and all of a sudden she’s taking over, even in feeding or changing her. I know it’s probably from a good place, but people make me feel like I’m not good enough to take care of my kid. And I have massive separation anxiety, even when someone is holding her next to me. I even have issues when my husband does it. Like, please let me try. Don’t do things for me. Let me make mistakes and try to figure out what I’m doing wrong.
Sorry for my baby rant. I just needed to say something to people who aren’t biased on the issue.
