is anyone lse feeling selfish?

I'm a FTM 39 weeks I can't wait to meet my baby, BUT I also want none interrupted time with her for about 2 weeks before people start coming over (that includes family) specialty Hubby's family since they have A LOT of people.
Is it bad that I don't want to share my baby? Lol

Yeah lol if I could I would do that too but then again it's kind of impossible because family wants to be a part of it too. It's just since I'm a ftm I want to experience being a mom for the first time for as long as I can haha without anyone trying to get into my time with my baby. Then after awhile they can have baby time too.

Lol to be honest I don't wanna share her at all until she's like 3 lol
I want all those little moments with her but I understand other people wanting to see her I just want all her first mile stones to be with me

I feel the same way but boyfriends family is the type to get so upset without understanding so I don't even know how to say it so I haven't and I'm due in 4 days. He has a ton of family too. I was thinking maybe a welcome party once he's like 3 weeks so everyone who wants to meet him can go and see him and stuff but idk. I feel like even that is too much for a baby. I just don't like sharing lol.

Haha I feel the same but I understand how hard it is to not be able to hold and see a newborn. They're are just tooo cute. I told my husband that I'm not going out for about a month haha cause I don't trust no one. But I'm okay with visitors and stuff.

Nope! This is my second and I feel the same way! Probably more defensive and protective....and that's also another reason why I'm breastfeeding so I can have more time with her
