This is not an excuse...it is life or death! Quit worrying about what other people think of you...there are times in life when we just have to sit back and let others do the work. For you, this is one of them! Having a new baby is excuse enough!

They shouldn't think you'd be up to planning anything or running anything for at least 6 months, just due to the stress of having a new baby! With your health issue, they shouldn't plan to have any help from you for at least a year.

You'll be healthy again and then you can step up and do these things again!

As to your family, they need to know! They don't honor your boundaries anyway...dropping a kid off to be babysat within hours of your giving birth shows that.

I would guess that they take advantage of you because they think you enjoy being there all the time to help. This is a good time to reset those boundaries...let them know that you and your family are the first priority.

Okay, I'm putting the soap box away, lol!

I'm glad your news from your doctor was good!!!! I hope your recovery is much faster than they expected!
