My husband's a Malay Muslim, I'm a Chinese convert. We both are aware it is forbidden to shave one's eyebrow in Islam practice. Hence, i told my mom (who did confinement and taking care of baby for me) that do not cut or shave my baby's hair.
1-2weeks ltr my husband found out my baby's eyebrow suddenly were gone, i wasnt paying attention to my baby cuz i was focusing on my episiotomy recovery. My husband did not get down to the bottom of the matter and started assuming my family and I shaved his eyebrow and he threw a big tantrum at me. Blaming me why am i only focusing on myself and not baby? Till now i am not sure what happened to my baby's eyebrow, why is it gone? Or is it a normal thing that baby eyebrow will disappear and regrow agn? My husband was furious and said will get down to the bottom of this matter. Weeks gone by, nothing was told by him. But i know he told his mom about this incident too. Out of curiosity, i scrolled his whatsapp chat w his mom and i got this screenshot of their conversation.
I dont really understand Malay and i tried google translation, some parts came out quite harsh and hurtful. I do not want to jump into conclusion that my mil is bad mouthing me, as google translation cant be accurate or unable to properly potray what the text mean. So, i would greatly appreciate mummies to help me look through the convo and tell me if my mil and my husband was bad mouthing or blaming me for not taking care of my baby? Your help is greatly appreciated thanks!
