I worry about my post partum depression taking over me the past two after births I was extremely sensitive wanting everyone to leave me alone with my baby. I just couldn't stand My mother in law. She flew in to stay with us and help which I appreciated so much but she was doing a little too much and I felt like she was trying to takeover. Made me feel like I couldn't handle both of my kids. I had a 4 year old going to preschool and a newborn at that time and she was doing everything for me and even try asking to sleep in my room with me and the my newborn daughter and after I gave birth considered she should stay the night with me in the hospital to help with the baby and my husband go home and sleep. But I just wanted my husband there with me only she never stayed because I refused of course. But it bothered me is their a nice way I can warn people to give me and the new baby space. She just mentioned today that when the new baby comes maybe the cradle could stay in her room she could take care of the new baby at night and I could just have my older daughter in my bed with me who is 2 sleep with me which she still does. Since she will never sleep with anyone but me or my husband and I just weaned her from breastfeeding so she's still a little bit attached but not too much. But she will never sleep with my in laws never. I was like you could take my daughter if you like to try but the new baby needs to sleep with me since I'm breastfeeding. Then she says well maybe this time you could start the bottle right away. I'm just like really in my head lol what to do?
i talked to my doctor about this and he laughed he told me theres no such thing as postpartum depression that its all in your head that some people exaggerate that i just have to keep myself busy lol but yeah if you feel like that be honest with her i know shes just trying to help but dont be so hard on her either i wish i had someone like that
Tell her to know her role tbh she's not the mother you are
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
I wish it was. I will try hard not to dwell into depression. With my first I had no idea what I was feeling this is my third baby so I will prepare myself probably won't be as bad my second it only lasted a month I got back to normal fast. I know I might be hard on my mother in law because of the history we have living together in the past. But I'll try not to let her actions make me think the worst. She's a great grandmother to my children. So I'm very thankful for that. Just at times I like my space.
