Am I overreacting about annoying MIL?

I’ve always liked my MIL, but ever since I had my daughter ( 3 months old now) she’s seems very overbearing to me, when I gave birth she was there the day I came home from hospital, a Friday, which I didn’t want cause I was tired & sore, then she said I’ll be back Sunday.. I didn’t get a second to settle in at home. She lives a 45 min drive away so she visits me ( I don’t drive) but when she visits she holds baby the whole time & my FIL doesn’t get a look in, if she comes when I’m feeding baby she gets right in mine & babies face for the whole feed, same when I change her. She keeps calling her “ my girl “ which seems like nothing but drives me crazy, now she’s dropping hints about taking her overnight which I don’t want, she also tries to make me feel guilty cos I won’t stay with her for a few days, she’s still trying to pressure me into it, she’s getting a family photo done soon & I HATE photos & still carrying baby weight said I’m not doing & she was talking to baby and said “if you’re not at that photoshoot, I’ll kill your mama” in a playful way but it was meant as a sly dig .. she is just driving me crazy .. also when my baby had colic she told me to ignore her fruit that it was just what babies do and I could t let that’s stop me doing things like going out .. my child had colic, I couldn’t ignore her ..am I overreacting ?

You should have asked them to change the title of the other one rather than post a second thread
