MIL & FIL were around today and as soon as they walked in the door and as much as said hello to LO he started screaming and was inconsolable til I took him in the other room to calm down. Then when either of them as much as looked at him 'wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh'. After about 20 mins of him sat on my lap, listening to us talk he warmed up to them and let them hold him but only for about 10 mins at a time.
MIL was seriously offended by this. We later went to Starbucks for a coffee and as soon as I took Nate out of his pram I asked her if she wanted to hold him and she said, 'no, your alright, ta'. She's not seen him in a month. How does she expect he'll react to what is in his eyes a stranger.
I wish he enjoyed being passed around and coo'd and laughed at whoever was holding him but he doesn't, and is clingy to mummy and daddy, so I'm sorry. I almost feel like they don't like him in a weird way! They only stayed 2 hours and they haven't seen him in a month. They may not be back for another month after this. They only live an hour away.
Just a vent really. Anyone else's LO like this?
Don't really expect any advice. In a way I feel bad for them that whenever they come around, even if it is after he's just slept 1.5 hours, he seems to be in a mood but in a way i think they expect too much from him.
