So I understand that as a first time mom there are a lot of things that I need to "learn" from past experiences from other moms. I welcome anyone who's willing to share how miserable their life was for the first few months, how much trouble their babies have, etc... however, I don't like them telling me what MY experience will be when my baby comes, and that I won't be able to carry out MY PLANS as I was hoping to. Just because they were unable to let their babies cry for more than 2 seconds doesn't mean I will do exactly the same. I have a different personality than them as well as different approach on how I am going to handle my baby situation. I might end up be the same just like ALL the other moms they were referring to, but I don't like people telling me that my way will not work.
I also would like to stand by my plan to have my mother-in-law to help me out during the first few months. I will try to control my hormone as well as I could and will be a grateful daughter-in-law who appreciates any help she could get. Even though she might not be a professional doula, but I would trust her than a stranger that gets pay for the job.
Also that I have faith that my husband will be a good father. He will feel the same pain as I feel when the baby hits the head on the floor, he will care about the baby's well being just like I do. Just because their husbands are idiots doesn't mean my husband is one as well.
I need to stop talking to people who thinks they know it all just because they have had babies before!
