I feel very ungreatful for even posting this, but my mother has been staying at our house for 1 month, from my due date to now, 12 days post c section. She has been helpful and done housework and generally helped out. But I have had limited time to be alone with my family, and have felt a bit suffocated. She got very offended when I said I didn't need her anymore and could manage, insisting that I can't because dp is away a few days. But I now feel fit and well. She has parked her caravan in the campsite behind our house, but is afraid to sleep there alone. Last week she also brought my uncle with mental health problems to stay. She brought him to the hospital the day I gave birth. I feel like she has a hard time understanding my personal boundaries and my need for space and bondjng with my own family. But she takes great offence if I hint at wanting to be independent now...... Feel like screaming!!!
