Having a baby is a HUGE thing on your mind and body and you need support and I can totally sympathies with how horrible it must been to know you had to stay an extra 5 days! Your poor husband as well to go through that - I just hope he is there for you know (I'm sure he is).

Wh...Awww, I just want to give you a big hug, Kerry. What an emotional time for you all. So sorry to hear about your mother-in-law, must have been very difficult for everyone. I don't think you are being at all selfish. Having a baby, a c-section and staying in hospital is enough in itself, without feeling that you were on your own. I stayed on a 9-bed ward for one night after my first baby was born. It was absolutely awful! Really not a good place for a mum to be with a new baby. It must have been hard having an extended stay. I hope writing about it has helped you process it all though. I admire you for writing it all down. I'm sure you are not the only mum to have felt this way. Hope you are all doing okay now xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17840536809862309511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8594256283995726900.post-23522408089661877942016-01-04T21:49:51.210+00:002016-01-04T21:49:51.210+00:00How horrible for you all. I have to admit I loved ...How horrible for you all. I have to admit I loved staying in after having my three - it was a break and nice to be looked after, but I was lucky enough to have amazing support. I think it's good that you've got it written down, and hopefully can begin to come to terms with what sounds like a rough start.

Poor you It actually made me cry. I don&...Oh Kerry! Poor you It actually made me cry. I don't think you are selfish at all and I know a little how you felt. What should be the most precious time ended up being so sad and lonely. When I had my 2nd baby I had her very quickly, on the floor at home, I felt guilty for weeks. That because my labour was so fast and painless I should be doing more. The house was a tip and I missed having time just me and my son. My best friend separated from her husband on the day I gave birth so I didn't have anyone who really knew me to talk to. I felt so alone even though my husband was there and supporting me. Staying in hospital must have been so awful too. You just want to be at home. I think its good to write it down and get it out there. Thankyou for sharing it with us.

This is so awful! And so bloody honest! Wha...Babes! This is so awful! And so bloody honest! What a horrendous situation! And you are far too hard on yourself about people thinking you are selfish. Having a baby is one of the most emotional times of your life. Even if you are lucky enough not to have complications in birth or feeding then you still have to deal with the complete emotional and physical exhaustion and the surging hormones. That ON TOP of losing your MIL, your husband not being there, you being stuck on a nosy ward ....it just sounds awful. Masses of hugs. I hope you and your husband's family are working things out.
