Feeling like a bad mom ðŸ˜
My husband and I are not very active on social media, we didn’t even announce our pregnancy until I was 37 weeks pregnant. When our daughter was born my husband really wanted to post a photo and announce her birth, but he held back because I wasn’t sure it was a good idea. I was ok with him sharing a photo, as long as it didn’t show her face. Time passed and I saw how important it was for my husband, and how happy and proud he was so I gave in. We posted our announcement today, when our daughter turned 3 weeks. There were two photos of her on the post, which can only be seen by our friends. We received a lot of love and kind words from our friends and family, well wishes for our baby and all that. Then a friend of my husband’s wrote a comment saying we are bad parents for posting her photo on social media. This hit a nerve and made me feel awful. I know this person has been trying to conceive for a long time and trust me, we had to go through fertility treatments to have our baby so I know how hard it can be. I don’t know if this is the reason why he is so bitter, but he didn’t even acknowledge the birth of our daughter and just went on to judge our decision to share her photo with our friends and family. I know he’s a jerk, but his comment made me feel like a terrible mom ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
