New Baby

My baby is two months old and he spends time with his gran on a Friday at their home. They recently got a car seat for their own car and have taken my son to different family member homes (on my partners side). In the first day they used the car seat he went to my partners mums boyfriends mums house then to my partners grans house then to my partners uncles house. It doesn’t feel right that my son is being passed around all these people without either me or my partner being there. I feel so uncomfortable with this and I’m not sure how to approach it. It makes me feel hesitant and him going back again.

I also wasnt asked or told that he would be going to these different places.

Am I being unreasonable?

I know I’ll be flamed but I don’t believe most posters wouldn’t expect something.

I don’t think it’s grabby to think your brother/baby’s godfather might have brought a token. Even if it was a packet of biscuits to dunk into his tea.

Generally, for a new baby people like giving to the little one. As PP mentioned similar, when my first was born, a lady in the building society put 50p in his hand to ‘cross his palm with silver’. Didn’t actually make him rich as he’d testify 30 years later.

Sorry op, like you, I’d expect better from family.
