BD Visit and Vent

in May 2012 Moms

So, yesterday, SD came to see DS for the first time since we got home. He brought his mother, which was fine, except I'd have liked to know. The visit went OK. I'm still really bitter and angry over the events of the last 10 months. And, I don't think I'll ever get over "I will take him away from you." but, I'm trying. I don't even have to let him visit at all.

They brought him a bunch of clothes he can't wear...it's a 100 degrees out!! The wrong kind of diapers, I prefer pampers. And, a Boppy we won't use because it's a SIDS no no "You can put it in the crib!" But, then she gave me the receipt, so it can all be fixed this weekend.

The hard part came when Henry got hungry. NO ONE WOULD GIVE HIM TO ME!!! Bd's mom just kept saying, make this sound, rock him, do this...then, when he'd cries himself to exhaustion, she said, "See, he just needed to cry." WTF?! I kept saying, he's hungry, and they ignored me! I told BD that in the future, to hand over the screaming baby...or there wouldn't be a future until he understood newborns don't need to CIO!

    You deserve a medal for letting them visit.  I would have taken the baby from them.  At least it's over!

    Since when do babies "just need to cry"?? I applaud you for keeping your cool--I'm not sure if I would've! 

    At least she brought a receipt, and I'm sure that Walmart will take the diapers regardless of where she bought them so that you can get the ones you like.

    Ugh how frustrating!  MIL came over the other day and would not feed LO when she started crying.  I made a bottle and put it next to her and she said we need to hold her off from eating so often.  She eats every 2-4 hours....she is a newborn....She only cries when she is hungry.  I so wanted to rip her out of her arms.

    Totally feel you.  MIL and FIL came over last week.  MIL walked in and sat down in our recliner putting her feet down (which still had shoes on them) on LO's blanket... Umm..  excuse me?  First off take your shoes off at the door and secondly, don't put them on her blanket.. now I have to wash that before she can use it again!  
    Then she insisted that I should be bottle feeding instead of breast feeding cause then DH could bond better with her.  She also held a pacifier in LO's mouth while she screamed (she hates pacifiers) and when I tried to tell her that she doesn't like them she told me I should just dip it in some honey and that will soothe her.  
    Oh and she also told me that at bedtime I should just change her diaper and put her in the crib on her belly, even if the doctors say not to...
    Needless to say.. I was very glad when they left and we have not invited them back.
