“All I want for you to be is the most comfortable and engaged version of yourself, so much that you could just dissolve into the fabric of the present moment and live with no barriers separating your body from the world.”—This 🖤…I’m going to memorize it
If you don't really want to hold or interact with the baby, you really don't have to and your family should respect that. Far better that than be like my brother who visited me in hospital just after giving birth whilst fully off his tits and just giggled at the size of my son's feet.
I fell off the bed onto my head as a baby, at such a young age that my parents would not divulge because they probably didn't want me to be taken away. Now I know why I am gay. Thank you, ladies, for your wisdom.

I'd love to see a large burly man carrying Katya everywhere
I will forever be scared of dropping the baby/tripping while holding the baby so i only hold them sitting down.
Children, however, I avoid at all costs.
