July 2015 Moms

Ugh. Seriously.

So. I took LO to my mil's for half a day on Thursday so I could get some stuff done and just have a break. When I picked him up she told me she fed him a lemon pudding snack pack. I was pissed. I brought food for her to give him she just didn't care. So yesterday morning he starts projectile puking and has diarrhea refusing to eat his baby food. I feel like it's her fault for feeding him all that sugar and whatever other crap is in that pudding. I. Told her he was sick from it and she just does not think she did anything wrong. I feel like I can't trust anyone with our baby. 

ok rant over. 

Re: Ugh. Seriously.

  • Oh hell no, I would be freakin pissed!

  • Wow! I would be pissed, too. Hubby would be having a talk with his mom about how to feed your baby.

    I hope your little one feels better! But next time please don't leave your little one with her, that pudding is not even healthy for us adults, and it's filled with sugar. what did your Dh say!? I would be upset!! But right now take it easy and take care of your little one, maybe send an email or call your pediatric to tell them what happen and maybe what can be given for his upset tummy.  Let us know how your he is doing and sending lots of prayers your way mama!! Hoping for a really fast recovery! 
  • I would be pissed...i wouldn't let her watch baby for too long
  • Yeah, if that was me she wouldn't be watching my LO again for a VERY long time. And if she asks why I would straight up tell her I can't trust her to respect my rules.

  • Wait. That's a joke right? What was she thinking!! That blows my mind that she would even think to do that. Nope. Would not be babysitting my LO. I'm so sorry that happened. Prayers your LO is better! 
  • Yeah I won't be having her watch him for a very long time. I just couldn't believe she did that. He's feeling a little better. He's drinking milk and hasn't puked today at all but it's been a struggle with his baby food still. I'm hoping that will get better. Dh was pissed but he has a terrible relationship with her so that conversation prob won't happen. I madenit known that she made him sick and giving him stuff like that is not ok with us. I make all his baby food and don't hardly even give him any sweet fruit stuff yet let alone store bought stuff.all that sugar was just a complete shock to his system plus that acidic levels in the lemon probably didn't help any.  I can't leave him there if she doesn't have basic common sense. So frustrating.

    I'm glad your baby boy is feeling better!! Give him a couple days for his system to go back to normal and I'm sure he will take his food by then. Maybe his system just needs a few days to rest. Keep us updated and I hope he has a quick recovery :smile: 
  • I don't blame you for being so mad.  I wouldn't let her watch him again.  My MIL suggested putting sugar in LO's bananas.  Blows my mind why you would give a baby added sugar.

  • Yeah, I'd be livid! Sorry that you had that happen to you and LO.
  • My MIL does this crap all the time. She is daycare though so I can't keep LO away from her. DH refuses to pay for a different daycare so I just continue to tell her LO can't have that stuff and she continues to ignore me. Super fun, right?
  • Omg wow I would be livid!  I thank my lucky stats all the time for my hubby's awesome family all the time. They won't even give him new baby foods until I have and they have the okay. They buy new ones and i make from scratch but they make sure they have the okay first thank goodness! 

    I hope your little man feels 100 % again soon and I would so not be letting her watch him again for a very long time. People just shock me with their stupidit. To give a baby that crap!  Wow. 
  • I am sorry! I am hope he is feeling better. I hate situation like that because it so tickle-esh if that's a word, but trust me I know about the MIL issues. Hope he continues to feel better
  • Well he's feeling better. He's been eating his food although I've been having to put applesauce in everything for him to eat it. I'm still mad though.

    Can't get out of the box.

    This would be a huge problem for me and hubby and I would be having a serious come-to-Jesus talk about it because it's just not acceptable. Either he sets his mom straight or we find other childcare. His choice. That's ridiculous, you're the mom, your rules win.

  • I definitely feel you mamma! My DS  stayed a few hours with my FIL  and when we showed up about 15 minutes early to pick him up, we walked in with him covered in chocolate. My FIL had given him a freaking Reese 's peanut butter cup. I was so pissed and of course he hadn't felt like he done anything wrong.  All he could say was that he had given my husband the same when he was really young. Dude he's not your baby!!!!
