Did you have a lot of visitors after you had your baby? I think I was expecting a little more than what we've gotten and I'm feeling a little bummed and isolated. DH has had the last couple of weeks off which has been great, his dad came over a couple of times, a couple of our friends this past weekend, and one of my best friends last week. But my two other close friends haven't been by since we were in the hospital, the other friend who visited last week hasn't returned any of my texts or calls, and then my dad and stepmom were supposed to come over today but cancelled.

It's that last one that DH thinks is bothering me most, and he might be right, but I don't feel like I can get mad. The reason they cancelled is because my stepmom's brother had some sort of accident last night and has to have surgery and she's trying to find out what happened. My dad says she'd be too distracted to visit. But this is the first time since the hospital that they've made an attempt to come over, and when I talked to him he said maybe they can reschedule for next week. Next week?? They live 45 minutes away. I just feel like he doesn't really give a shit about seeing us or his grandson. And I feel bad being upset given what's going on with her brother, but it still upset me. Last time I talked to him he said they were trying to figure out when his brother wanted to get together and go to a steakhouse, and once they figured that out they could plan when to come over. Um, ok. Yeah. We'll just be here waiting for you to figure all that important shit out.

I think I'm just feeling lonely and overwhelmed by being at the whim of this little guy who just constantly needs me. I need more interaction but nobody seems interested even though I'm opening the door plenty. Short of begging people to come over, I don't know what to do but I feel kind of depressed about it. Am I just expecting too much? People have lives and its not even been two weeks. Maybe I just need to relax.
