Parenting after a Loss

Would this bother you?

On the few times my mom has been over here to watch the girls, she keeps using our cloth prefolds as burp cloths. Even though I've shown her where the burp cloths are. I suppose they're all washed and clean, but it kind of grosses me out a little that the diapers she's pooping into are being thrown over someone's shoulder to catch spit up.

Re: Would this bother you?

  • Yes, that would bother me. Yuck!

    For the record, we used cloth prefolds as burp cloths, and we didn't CD. So did my parents back in the day. They're so absorbent!

  • Haha, it would only bother me since you asked her not to and showed her where the real ones are.  I use his cloth wipes as wipes sometimes if he spits up and there isn't a burp cloth around...only clean ones of course!

    It would bother me because it's gross and, more importantly, you asked her not to do it. I think it's time to talk about it again and lay down the Mom law, which always trumps the grandma law.

  • I don't think it would bother me.

    There are going to be much larger battles to fight in the course of raising a baby and caregivers, so personally, I would let this one go.  

    I think it sounds grosser than it is.  I assume the pre

  • It wouldn't bother me that she's useing prefold as burp cloths because they're clean. It's not like there's still poo on them or something. It's the same as putting one of your DD's in a clean shirt that previously had a blowout on it. It's clean. What

  • It would bother me because obviously shes not listening to you or taking what your saying seriously... that would bother me a lot because i would assume every other request/rule whatever you have for them she would do whatever she wanted.
