My OH and I both feel pretty similar about this, we don't trust his Mum and Dad with Jessie yet but we do mine. I feel a bit guilty about it but I just wouldn't feel safe leaving her with them and OH feels the same. We haven't left her with my parents yet but would both feel a lot more comfortable with that although I still don't feel ready to leave her with anyone but my OH yet. Now his Mum is starting to get a bit pushy about looking after Jess for a while and we're running out of polite ways to say no! The reasons we don't want them to have her yet are:
-They have a dog who bites everyone but them and they always forget to shut him out of the room when we're there.
-MIL is always telling us Jess is fat and we need to cut down her milk
-She thinks it's safe to put Jess on the table even though we've told her she can roll over she thinks that because she hasn't done it round there yet it's safe!
-She thinks it's safe to put Jessies vibrating chair on the side so she doesn't have to bend down to look at her.
-She thinks we should be weaning already as it will help Jess lose weight!
-She thinks car seats are unnecessary!
It started with MIL saying she wanted her own buggy, when we asked her why she wanted one she said for when she had Jess for a weekend as we must let her have Jess for a weekend because we do my parents. My parents live 200 miles away and we go and visit, they never have Jess on their own. Now my Dad has got a job here
so that won't be an issue but she still wants a buggy to 'push Jess round the living room'. We know that she is saying that so we don't kick up a fuss about her getting one and that she'll gradually build up how long she takes Jess out for. Yesterday my OH and I were out for the day with Jess and she phoned and asked where we were because she wanted to take Jess in the pram. We said we were having a day out as OH has been really busy lately and we wanted some family time. She replied she'd be round in 15 minutes to take Jess if we could be back by then!! OH explained that we were having a day together and as Jess was poorly anyway (she has a rotten cold) we wanted to keep an eye on her. She then went off on one saying why was it ok for us to take her out but she couldn't! She then phoned again at about 9pm saying was it ok to come and take Jess out, we explained she was in bed and she said how we'd been out with Jess later than that before, I explained that we didn't get her out of bed for that, we were round her house for a meal, Jess was in the house all the time and she wasn't poorly then. After I got off the phone with her my OH was saying how although we don't want her to yet, we'll have to let her take Jess out or something soon. I really don't want to though!
Well done if you got to the end of that! Am I over-reacting? What would you do in the same situation?
