Having a baby is one of the most magical things someone can go through. What people don't tell you when you're pregnant is that although it's a magical and beautiful experience, it's also grotesque and vile in many ways. There's so much to worry about when you're pregnant, and your excitement about being a new mom may be sullied by the fear and worry that there's something wrong with the baby or the pregnancy. Let's say everything goes normally, well then there's still the whole childhood where you have to watch them, take care of them, and be there for them through everything. It's a 24/7, around the clock kind of job that never ceases. It never ends, stops, or goes away. Even when you don't feel like parenting, you have to be there to take care of your child, regardless of anything. It's the most selfless job in the world, which means it takes great responsibility.

In the story below, the narrator is a woman who's just had a baby. Her husband thinks that she's sleeping with the baby on her one night, and accuses her of being a bad mother. No matter how much she tells him she wasn't doing that, he insists on it and even tells the doctor about what she's done. Read the full story below for all the juicy details.

AITAH for telling my husband he isn’t allowed to come to our baby’s appointments anymore after he told the doctor something untrue?
