When new parenthood changes the mother-daughter relationship

My mom and I have always been close but since I had my baby she keeps giving me parenting advice that feels like criticism and I can tell she's hurt that I'm not taking it. We're both trying to figure out our new roles and we keep hurting each other's feelings without meaning to.

More people experience this than they realize.
