Stay strong ❤️ I suggest for you to set your boundaries with your in-law and husband. You are the mother and have every right to see/ carry your baby if you want. Do not be intimated by your MIL. If your husband won’t help, I suggest sitting him down and talking to him firmly. If he still does not want to participate, make decisions that will help yourself such as hiring help or moving back home. Don’t wallow in sadness as that may cause you to fall in deep depression. Don’t stress out about pumping and if need be, skip the boob and head to the bottle. Stay strong for our kiddo!!
