Husband rubbed his sleepy eyes, eyelids fighting to stay open.

Before I could say anything, mother-in-law burst in from outside.

She pushed my husband, who had just sat up, back down.

"Xiaohui, go back to sleep."

She picked up the baby, passed by me, seemed like she wanted to say something, but held back.

I had a faint smile on my lips, but remained silent.

Waking up in the morning, feeling refreshed.

Mother-in-law had already prepared breakfast.

Surprisingly, it was quite sumptuous,

Just as I was about to start eating, she pushed the dishes a bit further away.

"Ningning, new mothers shouldn't eat greasy and oily food, it's not good for breastfeeding."

Then she handed me a big bowl of murky concoction.

"Drink this, it's a lactation remedy I specially asked for, simmered for two hours."

All sorts of unidentifiable herbs floated in the bowl, some cooked to a mushy consistency, resembling vomit, accompanied by a pungent smell, even pigs would find it distasteful.

I couldn't help but gag twice.

"Mom, I can't drink this."

"You can't not drink it, your milk supply is insufficient, do you want the child to go hungry every day?"

I was speechless.

From last night until this morning, the baby had nursed four times in total, and each time my mother-in-law asked me four times.

And each time, it was the same question: "Is the milk not enough?"

I refused her: "Mom, I really don't need to drink this."

My mother-in-law's face immediately turned unpleasant.

"I kept track of the time last night, the baby takes ten to twenty minutes to nurse each time, isn't it because your milk supply is too low? And you have to wait two hours between each feeding, my grandson must be starving. Ningning, you're a mother now, you can't just do everything according to your own wishes, you have to consider everything for the child. Listen to me, from now on, drink a bowl of this medicine every morning and evening."

Here it comes.

Mother-in-law with her Parenting Under the Influence, here it comes.
