Having a new baby can be a rollercoaster ride. You’re tired, you’re recovering, your hormones are raging, you’re learning to care for a tiny human. You can be happy, sad, anxious, scared and overwhelmed all at the same time. It goes without saying that it helps to have a solid support structure around, whether it’s your partner, family, friends or all of the above.

Her 3-month-old contracted pneumonia from one of the grandparents, and landed in the hospital. Her fiance is now blaming her and their entire relationship is at stake.
