Um, does it make me a bad mom...

My MIL is visiting and has been holding DD for about 2 hours. I ate dinner, did some chores, and am typing with both hands. It feels great. Normally this is DD's neediest time, but I feel so free. Is that bad? Should I miss holding my baby? I'm going to say it's no problem, and feel free to go to the bathroom and get a snack on own. Score.

She's offered to take a night feeding tonight too! Woo hoo!

    My mom took Ella while I napped and showered. I meant to go down for an hour or 2 and woke up realizing I slept for 3.... Oops. It felt so good!! I did feel guilty but only for my mom and for not feeling guilty for missing her if that makes sense!
