I apologise in advance if this is terribly written, I'm sleep deprived with a 3 month old baby!
NC so I wont be recognised. DP brother is getting married October 2019. DP is going to be his best man and DD will be 2 years old. When the engagement was announced and DP was asked to be best man we both discussed that we should probably arrange for my mum to look after DD so we can have the chance to let our hair down and enjoy ourselves. I know it's early days and our baby is only 3 months old but I'm not planning on having many nights away from her so I thought this would be a good opportunity and she would be a good age to start having sleepovers at her Grans. Anyway I was discussing the wedding with MIL and happened to bring this up with her. I really didn't think their would be any issues but she was unhappy about it and questioned why I wouldn't take my daughter along with me. I explained that we thought it would be good for us to use the wedding as an opportunity to have a little break and that DD would probably be potty training at the time and going through the terrible twos. I was made to feel guilty about it and now I feel terrible. I'm sure DP brother wouldn't mind but she was acting as if it was her day and it would ruin it for her. Without trying to drip feed, she barely comes over to see DD and when she does I feel like she's questioning my parenting and she makes comments to DP about the way I do things.
AIBU? I really didn't see any problems when me and DP discussed it but I feel guilty now.
