Angry

I had a child 6 weeks early and she was below gestational birth weight when born.  My child spent three weeks in the hospital.  I had a c-section, and my husbands family was angry with me because I wasn't up at the hospital every waking minute the week after my c-section.  I have just felt so angry since everything happened.  It seems that I am angry with my husband and his family mostly.  And now that the holidays are here, we have some very strict guide lines for  our baby and my husbands family does not seem to want to follow them.  It makes me to the point where I don't ever want to see them again!!!   I just don't know what to do.  Is it normal after something like this happens to be this angry?  Even just little things like my husband not sorting the laundry makes me so mad at him!!!  My baby is doing so well now.  My child is 6 months old and is growing bigger every day it seems.  There should be no reason for all this anger!!!  It feels sometimes like I love my baby more then I love my husband, because I don't ever have this anger towards my child.  I feel that my baby is the best thing that has ever happened to me.  My baby loves me so unconditionally.  But I know my husband does too.  I just don't know what to think or what to do.  I don't want to get on any kind of stress pills because I am nursing.  Should I seek counseling from someone?  I sure hope you can help me.

i think that it is a normal reaction in some woman to get this was but never forget your husband he is part of the baby and your life i have been down that road it levels out if the inlaws are a decent sort if they are not thenyou will have to maybe change a bit i had 3 my last was in incubator 6 weeks i cant believe that your husband does laundry or sorts it mine would not do anything like that and if you will let it the anger will fade you dont want to get so wrapped up with baby that no one else counts maybe they sense this but if you still feel angry keep on writing do not waste good money because you get angry    lots luck   jo
