This mom sounds lonely. Maybe she is having doubts about having a baby or
post partum depression. She obviously needs to talk. Is she paying for your
visits? If so enjoy it--if not suggest you call her by phone.
This case reminds me of something my husband frequently says "Well, you
married that one." Meaning: they need me more for support than for
breastfeeding help. So many of these moms have absolutely no one. You may
need to be her leaning post for a little while.
By the way those patients who marry me, always seem to know when its time for
a "divorce."
