Comments on bf from ILs -- I know they mean well but....

[smallwonder]

Had a few anxieties about BF my DC4 (born a few days ago) but needn't have been, latch has been great, mw was happy, felt I had the support necessary to give it a real go.
MIL arrives at hospital, take DC and says 'OMG can you hear all that wind he has', 'You'll need to give him a bottle' DH and I explain its not about giving a bottle, he's just windy (remind her of DC1) and that all is well.
Continues to make huge fuss and reminds me that DC1 did not gain a lot of weight because of our selfishness to insist on bf.
'You need to give a bottle so we can help/so you can get some sleep/recover from surgery/so that he can sleep for longer and be happier'.
The worst part is his wind which he's had from birth. It is apparently like this because i insist on b/f and obviously can't be doing it properly.
Advice anyone? She'll be staying a while to help with other DC and feel I need to leave my own living room now to avoid conversation when bf.
Thanks.

Not nearly as bad as what you're getting OP, but I keep getting from MIL "ooh you're a proper earth mother" and "wow aren't you clever", and SIL shocked he'd put on so much weight "just from bf?" in response to my 5 week old porker ds who is now 1.5kg over his birth weight. Been biting my tongue but yesterday said well what did you expect, this is the normal way to feed babies! DH thankfully asked MIL to stop with the earth mother comments which she was repeating again last night.

ooh that would nip my head tweedle!

it's the disbelief that feeding a baby person human milk could actually work quite well. imagine that!

Yep, Earth Mother would seriously yank my chain.

And BF babies don't always drop weight centiles. DD never dropped an ounce. For the first week she held steady and then settled on somewhere between 50 and 75 for weigh. Her height is 25th so she's certainly no waif!
