I (24F) have a couple of friends who very recently had a baby (as in 2-3 weeks ago). I waited for them to get out of hospital and adjust a bit to their baby (about 2 weeks). I know that new parents just want to enjoy their time, try to rest and adjust to life with their new child, without any guests, yet I wanted to give them a small baby welcoming gift.
As such, I bought a few baby bath items and contacted the parents to ask if it would be ok by them if I can come to their place and hand in said gift at their door. I wouldn’t enter the apartment, just a 2-minute stop at the door and I’d leave.
They said that would be perfectly fine and then invited me inside, despite me insisting I didn’t want to be a bother.
Now I’m getting sh*t on by my own mother for bothering them when all they want is to rest, and I’m low-key questioning if I was an a-hole.
AITA?
Edit for clarification: I waited for them to be ok with visitors before asking if I could quickly visit.
