Babies: 9 - 12 Months

What does your mom to annoy you?

My mom kisses my daughter on her lips.. She thinks its real cute because my baby opens her mouth when she does it.. But of course she is going to open her mouth, she puts everything in her mouth right now!  I dont even kiss her on the lips, but maybe I am just silly. What does your mom do to annoy you?

  • She refuses to call Adam by name. It's always "how's the baby" and "hi baby!" Pretty minor in the grand scheme of things really.

  • She never does what I ask when it comes to solids.  She mixed two foods together on the spoon and as much as a I ask, will not give her anything thick.  I am giving her some table foods, and ask my mom to do the same (toast in the morning, plain pancakes) and she never does.  She also take two jars of baby food for breakfast and dinner, and when my mom feeds her its usually only 1/2 jar "is all she can get down".

  • My mom annoys me with pretty much everything she does. However, both my MIL and I kiss DS on the mouth and it doesn't bother me. He gives us kisses now too.
  • My mom can be judgemental. If she dosen't agree with something I am doing she has this way of smirking and saying "OK". It's very passive aggresive, and annoying:)

  • My mom has always annoyed me.  She's a girly girl and I'm, well, not.  She's an extrovert and I'm an introvert.  We're pretty much opposites, so almost everything she does annoys me.  It's too bad, because theoretically, it would be nice to be close with my mom.

    Oh, she lives across the country, so she hasn't done anything with DS that annoys me.  She's only ever seen him twice.  She'll see him again in two days though, so I might have something to add to this then!

  • We all kiss Kate on the mouth.  Are we not supposed to?

     

    My mom doesn't do anything with the baby that annoys me.  She started pushing solids earlier than I would have liked, but we put K on solids very young to help with the pathetically low weight gain (I hate to admit it, but she finally started gaining better on the solids.)

    My MIL used to annoy me with some things, but i've let them go.  And after how wonderful my MIL was with K in the hospital (she sang to her for 4 hours straight, for one, so DH and I could get some sleep after being up for 42 hours) I don't think she'll be annoying me anytime soon.

  • Good Lord, where do I begin?

    She disagrees with practically every single thing that has to do with DD.  Since DD was born, if I say "She feels hot," my mom will say, "No!  She's cold."  That is just an example, but that actual conversation has taken place.  No matter what I do she seems to think it's wrong.  "Thanks, Mom -- I really feel like a great new mommy to my daughter with your judgments constantly coming my way!"  We fight constantly.  It's upsetting to me because we never had problems getting along before DD was born.  I thought we'd actually bond more, but it's the complete opposite.  I think it's her and not me, though, because she makes DH crazy now, too.

  • My mom tries to 'secretly' feed him sweets. Graham crackers, cookies, cake, etc. She gives him small nibbles, and does it when I walk out of the room or as soon as I turn my back.

    This would make me so mad! My MIL did this the other day when she gave DD a taste of ranch dressing. I BF and haven't had dairy since DD was three weeks old because it upsets her tummy, and MIL gives her ranch dressing?

    Anyway, with my mom it's pretty minor. We get along reall well. But I don't like this thing she does every.single.time she sees my daughter. She goes, "Wheerrrreee's Lily?!?" to try to get DD to smile. She does it in this sugary sweet voice and somehow it drives me insane. Really, though, I'm lucky. :)

  • Nothing at all. I have the best mom ever...literally.  She's the best.  I can't think of one thing she does to annoy me.

     

    ...now if you want to talk about MILs... 

  • ugghghghghgghh

    she calls dd Bub-buh.  It's SO annoying and she says it like 20 times in a row while she's talking and playing with her.  She sounds so rediculous saying it too!!! She says it's slowwly and emphasizes the BUB part.  uhhhh

     Uhhh my MIL does this and it's SO annoying.  I tell her that's enough and she'll feed it to her behind my back :(

    I almost don't want to leave her alone with her b/c that's pretty much all i've ever seen her feed dd.
