Awwww, hun. Why do our mothers always make us feel so inadequate? Mine is just the same, but she acts like I'm damaging T by doing some of the things I'm doing, like BLW... don't even get me started. My in-laws feel the same way, but they don't dare say anything to me or I'd EXPLODE. I'm a placid person, but I make my decisions based on good research and they are my decisions to make, so if somebody tells me I've not got T's best interests at heart I get very angry indeed. Nobody gets hurt. Tilly will survive my mishandling, I'm sure of it. My mum makes me feel like a piece of s*** nearly every time I talk to her or when she visits.
And he'll do everything in his own time. Tilly certainly has taken her time - crawling finally at 11.5 months, and cruising but not walking unaided now. She babbles loads but makes no sense yet.
Hugs
