Boundaries

definitely reasonable

Looks perfect , could you share from 10-16 as well. These are must.

I think those are really good points, and I agree with all of them. However, if you’re going to send this to people you love, you might want to phrase it more nicely because it comes across a very rude (not because of WHAT you’re asking but because of HOW it’s written). Just my opinion! You can take it or leave it! 😊 For example, number 3: ‘I’ve already decided to breastfeed and won’t change my mind. Please be sensitive with your advice.’ And for number 6, you could say: ‘If you intend to visit, please send a message or call first to check if I’m available and open to visitors.’

Go for it mama I just had my first and I wish I stuck to the boundaries I set

@Jessica thank you for this. At the time of writing them out I was just focused on how disrespectful and blunt my in-laws and my family were the first time. For example my sister in law just popped up to my house with her 3 kids at 11:30 at night while I was showering and’s said “don’t be mad we didn’t wake her up but my kids wanted to see the baby”

Can I copy and paste ????my only issue with the hospital visit is my mother in law might be the one bringing my daughter to the hospitals so should we wait till we’re home or have my husband go pick her up ?idk how to navigate that.

@Chantal copy and paste if it will help.. my mom is staying at our house with our toddler while we’re in the hospital she won’t get to meet her baby brother until we come home. If you feel like she will trigger you in any way while recovering let your husband bring your daughter
