Worried about my mom watching DS

Lizzyie325

Tomorrow is the first time Ds will be left with my mom while I'm at work. DH has been watching him so far, but he finally found a good job, and he's starting it tomorrow. I'm so nervous about my mom watching Thomas. She loves him, and she lives with us so all of his things are here, and its only for a few hours.

But for some reason, every time he's around her, he'll have fun for a little while, and then he'll get really upset and start crying. This has been going on now for almost a month. Before that, she watched him while I was in the hospital and apparently everything went wonderfully (Dh agreed that Thomas was happy with her). 

  I'm so nervous that tomorrow I'm gonna come home to a crying, worn out and frustrated baby. I hate thinking about it and it's making me stress out. I've been trying to have them do little things together, so he knows her and is comfortable around her, but today I left him with her for about 5 minutes while I ran around and grabbed laundry. He was smiling when I gave him to her, but by 5 minutes, crying. She's not doing anything to hurt him either. I just don't know what to do.

Don't worry!  He will get used to being with her.  I am sure she will do great with him...I mean after all, she did raise you!

I know that must be stressful but its what has to be done. I am sure he will get used to it. Even if he cries tomorrow, he will stop and him and your mom will be fine. Try not to worry bc your worrying will not help. Good Luck!
