AIBU to be annoyed at this?!

Since I got a promotion at work my MIL has been taking DD one day a week on her day off (I have a child minder for the rest of the time).

Recently my mother has been making me feel really bad and extremely guilty because she and my father "never get to see" DD and PIL always get her. She made a point of it in get of my friends and made me feel so embarrassed.

The thing is whenever I ask her to take DD she's always too busy or my father is working so she won't take her on her own. I say she could come to our house but neither of us drives and she refuses to get the bus, she expects me to take DD across town to see her.

She then demands to have DD at weekends because she and my father are off work but as that's the only time DH and I are off we like to spend time with DD as a family some weekends. Sp she gets annoyed at those times when we say she can't have DD all weekend because we want to spend time with her. Yet when we have something to go to and ask her to take DD she says she's busy and then gets annoyed that MIL take her?!

AIBU to be a bit annoyed about this?

Sounds very childish to me, I don't want it (it being the baby in this situation) but I don't want anyone else to have it either!

Tell me about it FeelingSmurfy. I have no clue how to cope with her! I can cope with my DD's tantrums easier!
