Did you feel sensitive to peoples energy postpartum?
I notice it’s hard for me to be around older people especially the ones who are constantly talking. You know the people that don’t think before they talk.

You’re not “sensitive” you’re just more aware now & intentional of who you choose to spend your limited time & energy with. As a mom all of our time & energy goes into our kids & housework & all the mental load that we rarely do have BOTH the time AND energy for ourselves so because we value that even more so now, we’re very intentional with where that time & energy goes & it has to go into someone/something that’s gonna ADD to your energy not take away from it even more.
@Jenni-Leigh yes this is very true !! Maybe I didn’t notice as much before since I had more time and less responsibilities.

I had an unpleasant experience not long ago with an elderly woman who did not think before she opened her mouth. Wasn’t nice what she said and made me a bit uncomfortable whenever someone tries to talk about my child
