Im a new mum, ds is 6 wks old today. his 1st week was in intensive care, i was also in hospital, had lots of problems throughout with in law but when he was 3 weeks old i left him with my mum for an hour while i went to choose some carpet for his room, she answered the phone to mil, and ever since she had been moaning at how unfair it is my mum gets preferential treatment.
so today i heard from a relative mil has been slagging me off to anyone who will listen telling them how i think shes a bad nan, i dont take him there cos she smokes etc. i dont take him there cos ive never got on with her so y would i start visiting now. Ive finally given in tonight though and hes gone to visit for a couple of hours whil i stay here and his dad is playing football, yet all ive done is sob since they left. i still think hes too young to be with other people, mil sees other family members with the gc's and thinks she should be the same.
tell me im being stupid to be crying and get over it. i know i cant keep him to myself, my sensible side does know that! but my hormones are telling me to come up with an excuse to go and get him off her, in a way i feel like ive been pushed into it before im ready.
