RANT:: on May 1st i gave birth to my gorgeous daughter Mia, who is now a little over a week old. My boyfriend and i are overjoyed! we couldnt enjoy being parents more! we currently live with his dad and his stepmom, and that is where in lies my issue. i understand how excited his family is about the baby and how cute she is, and i know how they just want to hold her, but being a newborn only a week old all she does is sleep and eat. but everytime his parents come home if she is sleeping they wake her up literally everytime she is asleep, and they say "dont let her sleep, you have to put her on a schedule" which yes i know eventually i will have to put her on a schedule but seriously shes a newborn!!!! they always get in her face and seriously talk so damn loud, try and force her to be awake, to watch cartoons. they constantly slam doors, talk loud, throw things in the sink like with no common courtesy that the baby is sleeping. but its okay to wake her up, but when they wake her up and shes pissed ad fussy because no one will leave her alone then they want to give her back to me to deal with it! and my boyfriend wont say anything to them, or even have my back. i dont want to say anything because i know ill be a real momma bear bitch. but im inches away from snapping!!! help me how do i handle a situation like this!!!!?????? 😭
@mommy_of_two1994, its so hard for me to be stern like that, because im so passive like go with whatever but when it comes to my baby im so protective.
if i was in your position id tell them to DO NOT pick her up while shes asleep cause they arent the one whose up with a newborn. yes newborns sleep alot but when its that time you will put her on a schedule they shouldnt tell you what you already know -_- you are her mother YOU make the rules for your babygirl and put your foot down if they dont like it oh well they need to respect your rules and to Not hold her without your permission . thats what i would do, id tell my mom or in laws they need to ask me first before picking up my baby
If I were you I'd just put my foot down before it gets to explosion. They need to realize that YOU are her mother and what you say goes.

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
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...

is it wrong to be frustrated that my daughter acts like she can't do certain things with out my help. she plays dumb a lot and I wish I could be like no girl show what you know. she acts like she can't trace or match shapes so shes ask for "mommy finger" to help her so I barely hold her hand and she magically can do it but if I dont hold her hand she just scribbles and acts like she doesnt know
the pic is how she traces when I'm "helping her" otherwise it'll just be scribbles all over the page
My friend had a question that I can not answer: if her boyfriend tested for Chlamydia and it came back positive she more then likely has it? She is 18 weeks pregnant and was wondering on how to call and ask the OB to get tested again and I honestly don’t know what to say to her
So my baby is 8 weeks old and is thriving with weight gain each doctors visit. So here is my question: around 4-5 hours at night for sleep she wakes up every night and sucks on her thumb. (She finally this week likes it to soothe her during nap times) her eyes are still closed and she moves around and sucks it. I wake her to feed her. My question is should I just let it go? And see if she is just soothing herself to sleep? I don't want her to stave by morning if she sleep a couple of more hours...
yeah i knkw girl you just gotta learn to put your foot down and be completely firm with them they may not like it but shes your baby @mcgorgeousmia
