As has already been said during that post partum time mothers can be extremely sensitive. And if someone is giving you a hard time it is going to seem 10x harder to take. Take a breath and remember you know the truth of whatever is going on. Try to imagine what they are saying going in one ear and out the other. Try not to justify or explain - they probably won't listen anyway because they have already decided what they think they know. Try not to react - it only feeds them. And remember I said try - you emotional state is difficult right now. Give yourself a break. It is very hard being a first time mother.
You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
