Last baby, I wanna be alone.
So I will be having my last baby via C-section. Yes that means I will be having my tubes removed as well. ðŸ˜ðŸ˜¬ Ive been really set on this decision for quiet some time, and no I’m not regretting that decision. I have two kids already; one who is 10, and another who’s almost 3. My last pregnancy I was living far away from family. But after a while they came to visit and helped since then it was also a surgery and I was recovering. The only actual support I had down there was my husband. However this time around we are home. My parents are literally a house away from us, walking distance. I am thankful for that. My mom will be taking time off, and helping. Thank god for that. However, others want to help too. Yes this is a major surgery. But my last two I recovered quickly and did much on my own anyway. I know each time is different. My husband step mom wants to come. My sister wants to fly in. Other family members want to meet him after a week. And I’ve already said no to everyone. Simply because I would like to enjoy this soak it all in. Adjust from being a family of four to a family of five. I want to cherish those moments MYSELF. I want my kids to bond with their new sibling. For my husband and I to soak it in together ect. BUT my mom is making me feel guilty for shutting everyone out saying that it’s their milestones too. Saying I should be grateful that I have a bunch of family who wants to come help and meet the baby because she never had that. That I should take all the help I need. And I understand that and I already said if I needed help I would reach out but until then I wanted to see how things went first. I’m to the point now that I don’t want to share when I go into labor anymore. I just want to keep it private. But my husband said that to him that isn’t fair. I don’t know am I wrong for feeling this way? Should I just allow everyone else to come by and help and visit at the hospital??
