MIL Kissing MY Baby’s Bum?????

[Cloud9xo]

I went to my parents in laws house this weekend and when I was changing my 10 month old sons nappy, both my parents in law came rushing over leaning over LO and start stroking his bum, my MIL then proceeds to kiss his bum and tickled his nipples when I was changing his clothes. Whenever my partner holds LO she constantly sniffs his thighs/bum (clothed) saying mmmm and when she holds LO she will swing him to FIL so he can smell him and say mmmm. I didn’t bring it up at the time as it was my partners birthday so didn’t want any arguments (which I know would probably happen if I mention to MIL). I told partner after and he said he doesn’t find it strange but will tell them not to. I obviously understand a mum kissing/blowing raspberries on her own baby’s belly/bum to make them giggle but this is just making me very uncomfortable and would like to hear other people’s opinions.

I wouldn't care about being on civil terms with someone who shouted at me in the street. Your MIL sounds completely awful and will probably block you again once your partner has raised the kissing issue with her. She doesn't sounds like a particularly safe person to be around your baby.

I’ve heard of this before and would say it’s an older generation thing.

She didn’t tickle anywhere else on him, just each nipple one after the other. They were both on the other side of the room, it’s when I started changing his nappy they both came over and sat on the floor leaning over us, LO is a wriggler so turned onto his stomach when I took his nappy off which is when they both started stroking each bum cheek and his mum leaned down and kiss his bum, no where else. When he’s clothed and either her son or her is holding LO (she never does it when I’m holding him), she purposely sniffs his bum and front of his thighs, not his feet or upper body or anywhere else

When my daughter was a baby I was about to change her nappy at my mums, just as I had laid her on the floor my stepdad came and sat next to us and was looking at her and smiling. I don't know if he was being a doting grandad or a sick weirdo but I just stopped and didn't remove her nappy until he quickly got the message and tucked off

I know quite a few people really enamoured with baby bums and thighs, especially thighs. It’s the cute, roly poly nature of them. I don’t think it’s that weird and your poll is about 50/50.
