Postpartum sadness is more prevalent than the majority of us realize. According to research, around 80% of new parents experience it. A new mom named Gretchen is struggling to adapt to her new role, prompting her to request some time alone from her loved ones. However, her situation worsened when her in-laws showed up unannounced to visit the baby. She reached out to our editorial for guidance.<\/p>\n

This is Gretchen\u2019s letter:<\/strong><\/h1>\n

I had my first baby 2 weeks ago. I\u2019m overwhelmed and not in the mood to do anything, so my mom moved in to help me. I told my MIL, \u201cGive my family some space now. You will meet the baby later.\u201d She kept on calling every day, so I ended up saying, \u201cI don\u2019t care if it takes months. I\u2019m not ready yet!\u201d She was silent.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Yesterday, I was sleeping when my mom came to me in a panic. I woke up to my baby crying and my husband turned pale when he saw me in the living room. Horrified, I found out that 9 people from my husband\u2019s family came over to our house, and nobody had told me anything. Turns out my husband was the one who had invited his mom, dad, siblings and even nephews and nieces<\/p>\n

I confronted him, saying that he didn\u2019t have the right to tell them to come over without having consulted with me first. He said, \u201cI think you\u2019re overreacting. It\u2019s not like you\u2019ve been asked to prepare food and host them for a few days.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

I felt completely strained and stressed out I saw my MIL with a victorious smile, as if she was happy that she taught me a lesson. Without saying a word, I took my purse and stormed out of my own house while still in my pajamas. Do you think I overreacted?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
