Mom giving biased advice 🙄

I was having a conversation with my mom about taking care of the baby when it gets here and she said that to keep the baby full I’d have to put cereal in its bottle. Which I do not agree with because that’s a choking hazard and I understand that infants should only be drinking milk either formula or breast milk.

We had an argument and she believed she was right the entire time. That because I’ve never been a mother before I couldn’t possibly know what’s right. Like yes I wasn’t born knowing how to take care of another human being but I can decide how to go about caring for my child.

It’s frustrating because she thinks I’m trying to “starve” my baby by not putting cereal in her milk. I do not understand how she came to that conclusion as I never said I wasn’t going to feed her. Then my mom was like “well I’m not going to be around to help when the baby is crying then because it’s hungry.”

I feel insecure about my decision making now because obviously I’ve never taken care of a baby before and my mom has. It’s hard standing up for myself when she’s tearing my confidence down and making me doubt myself as a mother.
