I live with my in laws and itslike every single person has their own advice and it feels like they’re always trying to point out that I’m doing something incorrectly with the baby. My husband has been adopting this too, he points out things like “are you holding her head properly”, saying that I sleep too much and ignore the baby (right because 2/3 hours a night is A LOT) and other stuff. And all I want is just someone to ask if I’m okay, if I need anything and that I’m doing a good job. I just want a hug from my husband and him to tell me “you’re doing so well, I love you” because having a newborn, trying to get used to breastfeeding and being sleep deprived IS NOT easy.

I don’t know if I read into things too much because of the hormone dump but I feel really lonely and only feel happy when I’m alone with the baby.
