I had decided pretty early on that I didn't want a bunch of people visiting us in the hospital. I am not comfortable in hospitals or around doctors and I suffer from pretty severe anxiety. I have family that I see maybe once every three months who are now calling me selfish and rude and bratty because of my decision. Am I being unreasonable?
Nope you're not. I see no reason for people who aren't close friends or family to be there. My SO and I aren't even telling anyone aside from the babies godmother that we're in the hospital until after the baby has arrived. We want our time with him before everyone comes.
No I'm the same way. I don't want anyone but my direct family (parents and my boyfriends parents) no visitors until I'm home and adjusted to my daughters schedule. I also want privacy bc I wanna learn how to bond with her I'm so nervous and I don't need a lot of ppl opinions
It's your life, your body, your family, your baby, your special moment, and your decision. I'm in the exact same boat. I have severe anxiety, especially with hospitals and doctors. I'm saying no to everyone. They can all cry about it for awhile honestly. because God knows after they're done being big babies, they are still gunna want to see you and the baby at some point. Don't let them get to you.
I'm sorry:( it's your family been unreasonable. you do whatever you feel comfortable. like I don't want to have baby shower and get whole bunch of people touching my belly.
Tell them to shove it. The only people going to be at the hospital for me are me and my husband.
@mommyagain, @trinitysmommy some of my family members are being so hateful and rude about it all. I explained the reasons why and they didn't care.
No one but my husband is gonna know I even went into labor until me and baby are discharged 😊
