Guys I didn’t give my sister a hard time about this😭 she asked me and I said okay but internally I felt like it wasn’t my place to tell family to leave but I didn’t know if I was wrong for feeling that way, I realize now I was indeed wrong
Am I wrong? I’m bbysitting while my sister is giving birth. She asked me to tell anyone who comes over tht she wants privacy so to make them go home. I don’t think that’s my place to tell family that. she should be the one to do that.

Best piece of advice for you. She was either pushing or surgically removing a child from her. If she asks you to tell family not right now, just do it. At the end of the day I don’t think she would care if you said it was coming from her. She had a birth plan. She did it amazingly in 100% just listen to the one in charge

Do you have family that push boundaries? Because for me, I’m the first generation in my family to really understand them before having kids. And I mainly learned from online therapist YouTube.

It sounds to me like you either feel like you owe family your space or have family who demand constant availability. So just FYI, no one is entitled to your time and space. No one is entitled to your sister’s time and space. You are both entitled to your own privacy. You are both allowed to say no.
