Hi Grandma Kimmy Dawn

I've never been married and I don't have children. But I'll share my thoughts with you if you don't mind. I would be upfront with your daughter and husband about how overwhelmed and disposable they have made you feel. Tell them your limitations and set boundaries with them. Express to your husband your needs and wants in your relationship in a "black & white" manner......I've learn in university......that men don't understand women for the large part because we tell long winded stories whereas they just tell it like is...very straightforward...no need for misinterpretation. And as for your daughter......maybe there is a young mother/first time mom support group she could go to? So that she could express her anxieties and fears to others that can relate....lessening the emotional stress towards you.

I hope this didn't come across as me "preaching" to you....it's just advice....take it or leave.

Take Care,

Pilatus
