Trust me, it took me years to put myself first!
When I became a first time mum, the pregnancy went with her ordering me around and then after birth everything was a mad rush with long labour, painful after birth, freinds family coming to visit! My personal space being invaded by mother-in-law.
It was hard! She used to give funny looks everytime hubby went down to wash a bottle even!
Every night she used come to our room without knocking and tell my husband to shift to another room so he can get uninterrupted sleep! Like as if I was going to let that happen!
She made me cook while she spent time with my baby! That was the worst!
Mental health took a nosedive!
Things got better when we moved out of inlaws!
Second baby again the same gyaan of letting him sleep 😡
So now I just listen in one ear and out the other! Not compromising on my sanity and the understanding I have with my husband to satisfy her old school thoughts!
