Here's a scenario: one-year-old is transitioning from 2 naps a day to 1 gradually, but because of that, his nap time is kind of awkward and inconvenient for others as it's usually 12-2pm during adults' lunch time. I'm a fully DL mum and sometimes if LO stirs awake within 1hr of his nap I'll enter and latch some more so that he naps enough. My family did a reunion lunch and as it was about to begin, LO stir awake and I immediately rushed to latch him because everyone would prefer a well-rested bub, anytime, right? I got stuck nursing, and missed the bulk of the reunion lunch. My parents got really upset with me and said I should have let LO wake up. And because of that they would just treat my hubby and I as transparent because they were upset. I really don't think this is worth destroying a festivity for. Right? This was also my first CNY being a mother, maybe there could have been some leeway?
