usmagazine.com:

Not here for it. Tia Booth clapped back at mom-shamers who questioned why she has help to take care of her son at night.The Bachelor alum, 31, took to social media on Monday, January 9, to share a message she received from a follower. “Not trying to be mean, but having a child is taking responsibility and bonding with your baby in the middle of the night when they wake.

Not hiring someone to do it for you so you can ‘sleep,'” the person wrote.Booth, who welcomed son Tatum with Taylor Mock in December 2022, acknowledged the “luxury” to have assistance a “few nights” a week.“Got 3 more that weren’t as friendly.

It’s a temporary service that helps us tremendously as first time parents. I’ve learned so much from these nurses and will never look back and think, ‘Damn I wish I wouldn’t been more sleep deprived on those nights we had help?'” the reality star captioned the conversation via Instagram Story. “I’m able to be a better mom during the day when I can THINK & know my baby was so loved on & taken care of the night before.

I don’t have family here. Neither does Taylor. This is our help a few nights a week.”The Bachelor in Paradise alum also requested that strangers “stop freaking mom-shaming” in response to her posts.“Moms, who have once been first time moms, will say ‘do what’s best for you and your family’ then shame you & lose respect for you for needing help,” Booth added alongside a photo of her baby boy. “We can only be praised when we’re exhausted & doing it all alone???
