I guess I am lucky :)

I was reading on DS (as always :) ) and on mothering forums. I get sad reading how some of these womens families treat them for their choices. One lady was upset because her parents would not agree to NOT let their baby CIO of they babysat. Or how some of their familys do not like them BWing or BFing. The families that think cloth diapering is disgusting or "we didnt use a carseat for you are you are fine" or "you already have three kids dont you know what casues that". I just feel soo bad for them but it made me think of how truly lucky I am. My family and Nicks are VERY supportive of us. They never bat an eye when I am breastfeeding other than to be nice and my male cousin even gave me tips from their LC when I was having a hard time three days after birth. They would NEVER let my child "cry it out" they LOVE their grandbabies. My cousin love my baby carriers and uses them too with my kids :) She also love that I cloth diaper and if she hears of anyone wanting to use cloth she runs over to tell me and has me find info for them. My grandma has ten kids and told me the other day it would be ok for me to have another now since I need to catch up with her lol. They are supportive of all my decisions and I LOVE that. I also feel bad when I hear bad mother in law stories. Nicks mom is NOT perfect but she is awesome. I can talk on the phone with her for hours. I hate that some of these woman cannot even have a conversation with their families that has to be sooo hard.

I dont know where I am really going with this just wishing I could give all these mamas a hug because I truly feel for them.
