The first couple responses are fantastic. That is great stuff to continue working on and you're on a good path now for that, from what I can see.
How are you doing with the self trust thing?
What I see is a lot self doubt. For example, the "not being delusional" idea... never forget that your instincts are true and very real, for you. Might I suggest you get to know your instincts. Comparing them to others right now is going to provide you with conflicting information which is not going to be helpful for your self discovery and growth.
When you ask a question here, such as regarding child raising, or personal relationship issues, or career paths for example, your feedback is being given from people who are at best minimally different than you and at worst, completely opposite you.
I can provide more on this at a later date if you need. I really want you to understand... when it comes to your daughter... raise her as you want... there is no right or wrong for the most part... people have been doing this for hundreds of thousands of years on their own, and doing ok for the most part...
My observation is, you still need to work on trusting yourself, otherwise this forum will forever be a crutch for you... we know you like us, but when does LG start being LG and operating her life and her environment from a place of trusting LG to make good decisions... like anyone else, you are capable of making good decisions that work for you and your D and anything else that is pertinent to you...
