Hi ladies need some advice. Bit of back story, me and DS dad split 9 months ago as he met someone else I moved out of the home and we now share custody equally. The girl he is now with has been introduced to DS about 3 months ago, I was not entirely comfortable with it but ex dp pressured me so I agreed. Now this girl is very nice, however every time I go to pick up DS she is there! DS is two and beginning to talk/form sentences he has a new word nearly every day which is great but I don't always know exactly what he is trying to tell me. When this happens she always says oh he means this..... Which is fine but I feel like she doesn't know her boundaries she is constantly informing me that he is teething, and she is picking out his clothes in the mornings. I went up to visit yesterday and she had him on her lap and no matter how many times I called him over she kept him there and distracted him from what I was saying. These are just examples, I know I sound petty but I just feel like she is pushing her way in as a mother figure which I do not like as they are only together 9 months and anything can happen. How do I deal with this? I should also point out that I work full time and his dad is unemployed so looks after him when I go to work so she sees DS an awful lot! I tried to make some rules regarding the amount of time she spends with him as I don't want him confused but it seems to have fallen in deaf ears:( sorry a bit if a rant but just needed to get it out.
