Ok so we have a son who is 1yearold. Our first baby. Right from the get go we have had to constantly lay boundries down to stop hubbys family thinking they know best and that they can have rude opinions on our parenting style and how we run things- and they really dont like when our daily routine doesnt fit with what they want !!! etc etc I get the whole first time grandparents excitment thing, but i find it over the top !!! we have on a few occasions left our son and had the baby sitting done here-sharing between my family and hubbys, as its what we are happy with for now.. but we havent left him anywhere and no overnights as of yet, we are getting issues now around baby siiting and it made obvious to us all the time that they want more and want it on their turf. Well this really fustrates me !!! arent we the ones to let people know what we want?? are we normal first time parents to want to take it slow? they show hardly any respect for how we parent, act like we arent important eg i get asked on the phone before mil pops over the details on when and how long our son will be napping because obviously i dont matter and its just him she wants to see really, Anyone else have the same issues around baby sitting??
