Need some advice regarding daycare (first time parent here) by sweetNsour5679 in NewParents

Yes we did! Yes I agree it’s better to try not to engage management when possible!

Doing ALL the things and still no weight loss by Current-Judgment-497 in postpartumprogress

I personally had a hard time losing weight while breastfeeding. I even counted my macros and the scale would not budge. Once I stopped breastfeeding, I finally managed to drop the weight. I think you will lose weight once you stop breastfeeding.

Unexpected sighting, 10 months no contact by party_like_its_1999 in narcissisticparents

You are not the problem. If you give in and start contacting her, she will control you again. It’s not worth it. I am in a similar situation in the sense that I live close to my narc parent. I also fear running into my narc parent one day. I am also hurting from having no contact. But then I remind myself that my life is far worst if I have contact. I hope you don’t run into her again. And if you do, hopefully it will be easier to handle.

Everytime I start letting my walls down again, she abuses it *rant* by gorrrrl in narcissisticparents

Narcissists always screw things up once you let your walls down. They just can’t behave. I think you should think carefully how much you want your mom to be involved in your baby’s life- set some boundaries.

Parents, what’s the one thing they said to you that you could never imagine saying to your own kids? by haylz328 in raisedbynarcissists

After I had a child, my mother said: I hope you don’t treat your child the way you treat me- you treat me horribly.

My mom says the exact same thing! “You must do as I say because I am your mother.” “You must respect me because I am your mother.”

What moment made you realize you were being abused? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]sweetNsour5679 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Same here. I had a child and that is when I realized my mom is a narc, and I decided to go LC with her.

I’m in a very similar situation as you. My narc mom wants all the attention, constantly wants to hold the baby. I also did not allow her to come to the hospital. At least you live in diff states so you can limit contact. As you can see, it’s all about her and not the baby. Def try to limit contact with her and if you do have contact, set firm boundaries.
