Ok,big rant
So we were asked if we wanted to go to MIL & FIL's house for sunday lunch and we said not today as we are having a tidy up of the house and then goin to relax for the rest of the day with LO.
So they said,'ok then we will call u in the week'.
Fine,great....untill.....
They turned up on my doorstep 3 hours ago...5pm,LO's feed time.
So i was feeding him and he finished his bottle so i put him in his chair as that is where he naps.
He dropped to sleep straight away but when MIL walked in she made apoint of being loud and kept knocking the chair with her foot and going 'oops,sorry connah!' really loudly.
Anyway he ended up waking and moaning a little bit and she then went out of her way to make sure he was wide awake! touching him and tickling him!
She said oh hes awake can i pick him up?
what was i supposed to say?!
If i had rocked him in his chair he would have gone straight back off to sleep!
She was messing with him until 20 mins ago and at 8pm was ready for his feed...and yep,you guessed it...he fell asleep!
(Apologies if this is in the wrong section)
sorry its long,but how on earth are you supposed to say 'NO' to the inlaws?
Knowing if you did say no that it would cause major arguments?
Im so fed up of LO being messed with and fussed over all the time,he really doesnt like it.
1 thing i should probably mention is that i have a MAJOR issue with any1 apart from me or OH holding,cuddling,picking up or feeding LO...
This really upsets me and i just cant say no!
Any1 else with the same problem?
