Ok, I am seriously angry about this and have to share. Have namechanged through sheer embarassment as am mates with some mnetters in RL.

Long story short, I have been b/feeding DS for 12 weeks now. My mother has always had a problem with it - thinks it's wrong, dirty, disgustintg etc. Anyway, she's been staying with us for a week, constantly commenting on what a dirty mummy I am for "rubbing my breasts in DS' face" - basically encouraging him to latch on.

Yesterday evening I was dozing on the sofa and was woken up by something brushing my face - I opened my eyes and my mother was crouched by the sofa rubbibng her bare breasts in my face!!!! "Now you know how DS feels, iy's horrible isn't it??" she said.

I still feel sick to the pit of my stomach thinking about it. She's always been a bit mental but this, she's crossed a real line. I can't bear to be around her now.

She sounds toxic then, if everyone else has turned there backs on her!

I would worry about her being near my child, even if she is your Mother!

Well she is plainly deeply messed up. that's NOT your responsibility though - your responsibility is to your child. Your mother has undermined your choice, violated your personal space and taken a sledgehammer to your relationship imo. How adre she describe you as 'dirty'. You don't need that and you don't need somebody so screwed up and abusive near your child. Tell her to leave and think very carefully how you want to see her in the future - for example I would have to be unconscious before I left my kids with someone like that!

print this thread out and show it to her so that she understands how abnormal her behaviour is.

Then throw her out and don't ever speak to her again, unless she can prove she's visited a psychiatrist and has recovered from whatever madness afflicts her.
