Every new
mommy receives a fair dose of unsolicited advice from well-intentioned family
members. Even from strangers. This starts while she is still in the process of
learning and understanding the needs of her newborn baby. It can get really
annoying at times, particularly when the rookie mom has to pretend to follow that advice in an attempt at keeping her loved
ones unhurt. Moreover – and this is even worse – when people unknowingly induce
anxiety in a mommy’s mind, she faces a huge dilemma of whether to follow
societal traditions or her own instinct. When I travel down memory lane, I
recall the time when I also went through this situation. My baby and I were sequestered inside our house for many weeks – and I was helpless about it.
