Holidays
My baby girl we be born on December 13 is it wrong for me not to want to take her out for the holidays? My boyfriend family always go to his dads for Christmas but I think it's too soon for our baby to be out of the house plus it's going to be rather cold... Should I give in or tell them if they want to see her stop by the house
My son was born March, 29th so not too far away from easter. My husband's family had a party but we did not attend. Instead we had a nice dinner and relaxed at home with our baby boy. If you are going to take her out make sure she is dressed warm and I wouldn't let a bunch of people hold her. People get sick in the winter time and you don't want to take any risks. When I had to take my baby out I didn't let anyone hold him haha.
Ehh this must be ur first baby.... my son was born November 10th and I took him out on Thanksgiving...
Most moms are over protective. What could happen if u take ur child out for the holidays??

I wouldn't do that I know it can be hard when it feels like you have to think about other peoples feelings but your babies health comes first
You're absolutely NOT wrong. They have to come see my baby. I wouldn't take him/her out in the cold.
I also wouldn't have something at my own place unless everyone will bring potluck so you don't have to cook and also help clean after. I
My baby was born dec23 we got sent home dec25th
We arrived (to my moms to stay for two weeks for help) and it was a party...
Let me tell you this as nice as the attention is I was exhausted I cried myself to sleep once everyone left. Luckily my mom watched my baby but it was still hard having to breastfeed/pump every few hours. My husband was also livid knowing we had gotten little to no rest in the hospital either.
I wouldn't worry about the holidays, if I was you. Say you want to have your own family Christmas just you and your new family. You don't want to risk the baby getting sick in the cold weather or getting anything from so many family members being around the baby too soon.
Best of luck though and no matter what try to excuse yourself to either sleep or even excuse yourself to breastfeed or pump(even if you don't do that it's a good excuse to get out of a room full of people) ;)
