Today.  Dh decided to mail out to his sister, sil, and father a paper we printed out from a link on here about why we want a few days to ourselves after the baby is born and why etc... Because they don't understand us (about anything) and thought that would help. Today we recieved back the ugliest, nastiest most awful letter from his sister, whom he is very close to, and it was so bad I've been sobbing and throwing up for hours. How anyone could choose to say such horrible things to about-to-be-new-parents any day is beyond any scope of imagination I could possibly possess. Apparently, his whole family feels the same way. I was so happy and calm about upcoming birth and now there is this horrible black dense cloud hanging over everything. I'm never speaking to his sister again. I wish we didn't live near his family. I am so unhappy.  :  p.s. Am, however, greatly looking forward to Aubrey's update |
Oh No! I'll go tell her a thing or two for you! 
That's awful someone would make you feel like that at a time when you need so much encouragement. I think it's great that you and DH want to have good boundaries when your baby is born. You will not regret the precious private time you spend together as a new family.
I can't tell you how bad I wanted to run downstairs & post my birth announcement within minutes of my BOY'S ( 
) birth. But oops, I kind of squatted hard in the same position for 3 straight hours without realizing that I was murdering my legs. I couldn't move them afterwards! It took me all day to finally brave the stairs like a hobbly broken person to come post & see what I've missed!
LOL
.....aw, heck, the mesh underwear, too!
