Went to farm with mil today and just feel she really doesn't understand dd at all.
For example she gave her a high5 lolly while I was in the toilet. Which has about 5o e numbers in it. How many times have we explained to her that dd reacts to stuff like this? it was only weeks after Bibic and we explained totally about the diet change and why we were doing it. Only to find her dangling a pack of Haribos infront of dd saying "she's okay to have these isn't she?" Then I have to say no, take them away and dd thinks I am the worst mum in the world.
She constantly wants to feed my kids crap. I have told her until I am blue in the face that they are happy with fruit etc but she says "oh it doesn't seem fair really "
Well the biggy was today. While in the farm playbarn (dd was going a bit loopy from the after effects of Hi5) I needed the loo and said watch dd for me. When dd is in that kind of mood she needs to be watched like a toddler.
Anyway come out of the loo and as calm as anything mil is like oh dd just ran off out there. Still sitting down, doing ds's shoelaces. I ran outside (as there is a lake right there) and 5 minutes later no dd. Mil is wondering around and eventually ds saw dd round by the lake. I said to her "you cannot take your eyes off of her for a minute" To which she didn't reply.
Why don't people like mil understand. I just feel so annoyed with her today
My mum is very different and does what I tell her to and I trust dd with her with my life!
