What can boundaries look like postpartum? How do you manage holiday gatherings with a new baby?
Some examples:
𤊠âwe have decided we donât want our babyâs face or name on social media so please donât post her picture without our permission.â
đ âThank you so much but we wonât be able to attend this year due to our babyâs nap schedule / nighttime routine / winter germsâ
đ âI know she is so cute and you want to hold her but to keep her safe and comfy Iâm going to hold her and not pass her around.â
đĽ âWe wonât be joining this year since we arenât ready to take our baby on an airplane, but we canât wait to chat with you all over FaceTime!â
đ Our favorite: âour pediatrician saidâŚno kissing the baby / passing the baby / we canât attend cuzâŚâ
