"Maybe dont have a baby" (vent about family)
I told my younger brother the other day that i hate being exhausted taking care of my baby. He said "maybe dont have a baby then". 1. How am i supposed to change that now? And 2. Wheres the empathy?
I mean we all get exhausted. We all have days where it feels too hard. Even if you dont have a baby. Lifes hard sometimes. Right? Or is it just me?
I feel so angry at my brother cause he keeps saying stuff like that. He keeps judging me for having a kid and telling me i shouldnt have had her. I dont know what his actual thoughts are on it but i imagine i cannot vent to him at all without it somehow confirming his ideas that im a bad parent or i shouldnt have had a kid.
Im constantly judged by everyone for this. Im 19 so everyone thinks im young and stupid and dont know what im doing.
Idk my mom says im doing better than she did with her first kid. I feel like im doing it right. Of course i messed up a couple times already but its not stuff that caused any severe issues. Ive kept her alive and happy for this long (a month + 1 week)
I guess i just need to stop caring. But it hurts a bit worse when its your own blood that judges instead of being happy for you.
