Stress after birth

People are being insensitive. I just gave birth and I’m struggling. I still can’t walk or sit properly and my in laws are saying I’m not doing much compared to others. They’re also saying the other in laws took only 3 days and they’re doing chores. Mil even said she wasn’t this weak then. I get 2 hours of sleep Everyday and no one is helping. I feel like I’m on my own and I’m breaking down. My husband is not being there for me as much as I want to. Am I being too sensitive? Am i taking Too Long to recover?

Stay strong. I had the same thing too. My mum was the oke who volunteered to help me during confinement but she ended up complaining about how she have to do all the housework and “waking up in the middle of the nights”. She even left me all alone during most of the days when my husband is not around. Ended up having to seek help from someone else that is not blood related to me. Try to seek help from anyone. You can do it mummy!
