I was in a and e with DD for a few hours, we all know the drill. I've been quite often. I usually just go by myself with DD/DS and don't always inform everyone straight away. Long story short, I told my husband I was going. He had to return early form work and Mil found out I was there. She offered to come and I told her she didn't need to. She came anyway.
She was so annoying once there. She kept commenting on what I was doing and reminding me of all the germs I was picking up by sitting down on whatever I needed to sit on ( chair or at one point a bed ) and also placing my drink on the side. I was washing my hands as much as was reasonable. But didn't need constant reminders about the germs and how I should not sit there or touch that.
She's done stuff like this before, implying she thinks I'm unhygienic by putting my baby on a bed, rather than on a clean towel on the bed ( baby was fully dressed )....
I really hate being made to feel unhygienic. It's such an insult to me. I don't think I am unhygienic. I'm just not as worried about germs as she is.
She also just won't take the doctors opinion on board and keeps the pushing her own diagnosis on them. Whilst I am a believer in asking questions and never taking the doctors word as gospel, my MIL is never satisfied unless they do what she thinks they should do. It's quite irritating.
Would it annoy you too ?
First world problem I know..
