Yes I would listen to the bad feelings you have about it and here’s an example i went up to my aunts house 2 hours away to spend a week up there when my baby was a month old and before that i was a tad bit iffy about how it was gonna go because they like to judge things I do with my baby but I decided to go spend time with them and had convinced myself it wouldn’t be bad but i only lasted 3 days up there and i cried the first 2 before but i was just trying to make it through at that point until she started bothering me about my breastfeeding and how my baby wanted to feed consistently and he wasn’t getting enough but at that time he was cluster feeding but she wanted me to pump so she could see how much he was getting when in all reality pumping doesn’t take all the breastmilk out because it’s not as strong of a latch like the baby has so i ended up having an anxiety attack and then going home after
@Shaniyah I’m sorry you had that kind of experience it’s experiences like those that just have me raveling. I’m used to bringing babygirl up there I just never leave her. I’m just scared of leaving her alone by herself while i’m a whole state away so if something was to happen I cannot respond fast enough but also just the cultural aspect of it all. I don’t think my grandmother would do anything to harm her but has done a ritual on my little sister (she went to grandma’s by herself) and she’s not having the brightest life years later. so if they can do a ritual on her with no one watching then what will they do to my daughter
but maybe i’m just overthinking it idk
Ik i convinced myself i was overthinking and Ik none of my family would ever harm my baby intentionally but ik they will do with them what they want despite me telling them what he likes and gets even putting him to sleep so i will let them babysit she has watched him and i go around for holidays but im very hesitant on leaving him because ik they will simply just do what they want and im not up for them upsetting him or messing up his routine
Uhhhh i would not/will not be letting anyone do any kind of ritual on my baby.
@Sarah exactly why I’m scared to leave her there knowing my grandmother practices and she will be staying at her house.
Dont do it....... ahh.. you might be tired mumma and yes some time you might want help but the fact you said your not sure on her doing something just don't risk it... How old is your child.. like if they can talk alittle different but if not don't risk nothing.
I think the fact your gut is quite clearly telling you not to, and you and your husband are losing sleep over it then id personally listen to your gut feelings and don’t let your aunt have your baby. I wouldn’t feel comfortable doing this either, she’s your child and you don’t have to do anything you’re both not comfortable with xx
