Obsessive over my baby

So basically I’ve been called ‘ obsessive over my baby ‘ because when my baby was born I just watched him all the time when he went to people and just wanted him close to me whenever I could. I like to make sure my baby is well every so often. Am I obsessive?

No! Absolutely not! You have an instinct to be protective. That's your baby. You do you. Other people should stop criticising you for something that is innate. X

If you are I am - I didn’t even really like people holding my baby apart from dad and my mum and dad. X

Why wouldn't you be obsessive over your baby? You're literally their mother and it's just maternal instincts. Ignore those comments and continue to be obsessive as much as you like ☺️

Yes of course it’s obsessive… aren’t we all obsessed over our babies. It’s normal and we love them course we gonna obsess over them! I obsess over my 7 year old too. I just love em so much! They so adorable !

@Julia I am protective because that’s my world! But I’ve been made to feel so crap that I’m being ‘obsessive’ over my child because I watch people he’s being held. Also because I don’t want to leave him alone with anyone as of yet

@Julia thank you x

@Jade I was the same at the beginning but because my partner has a big family there was no way that could happen. Everyone just picked him up & even kissed him 😩x

@Jenny thank you for this. No matter how many kids you have you’ll always be protective x

@Elaine I was so confident before but now it’s really affected me :( I’m always overthinking x

@Katie louise thank you for this 🥹🥹makes me feel valid that I can be obsessed about my baby

I got told to relax and stop watching my baby all the time by my MIL. I told her I was relaxed & that it would be more weird if I didn’t care, or watch him at all. Sometimes people need to just shut the f*ck up if it’s not their child. It makes me so angry 🤬

@Taliah same! I feel like all MILs are the same lol

I'm the same, my little boy is now 8 months but I'll hover around anyone whose holding him so yes call me obsessive too 🙌🫶🏻

@Taliah it makes me angry too! I got the same 😩😩
