Okay ladies i know this isn't a pregnancy question but i asked lots of questions here when i was pregnant and you all helped a lot..here it goes. My mother in law and i have never really gotten along the best. My husband is her only boy and the youngest...double whammy i know. I had our beautiful baby girl on Oct 23. Sadly Oct 24 she was taken to the NICU because she wouldn't eat. Well no big deal she was in the right place but it was very hard on my hubby and i. my mother in law works in the hospital i had the baby in and decided to take it upon herself to go and see my daughter when ever she felt like it. the girls in the NICU asked if it was okay so i said sure but i don't want her to know any information about her status. no big deal. Well she got to come home on Nov 5. We were happier then ever. that sunday we went to church and i barely got in the pew and she was taking my daughter out of her car seat to hold her. i was upset but didn't want to make a big deal at church. i dealt with it. then on nov 22 i had a shower for my husbands side of the family and my daughter (madison) fell asleep on my chest. a few minutes later all of a sudden she was taken from me by my MIL. she woke up and started to scream. my MIL wouldn't give her back to me to calm her down. i was so upset but again didn't want to make a scene. now its thanksgiving. my husband just started a job working nights. i woke him up and we went straight there for dinner. we were an hour late the had already eaten and put everything away even though they knew we were coming. then i got maddy out of her seat and gave her to my hubby who had not seen her at all that day and she came over like she was going to take her. finally i stood my ground and said no. plus madison was spending the night with her because i was going shopping with my mom friday morning so thinking about it logically she could hold her all night so let someone else enjoy her for a while. i went to pick her up friday morning and had called her ahead of time to get her ready got there and she was still holding her nothing ready to go...i had to spend another hour there while she said good bye. I know and understand her being excited about madison but seriously how do i either control my emotions or talk to her about her actions without her freaking out? And please don't say it's my hormones because i had her almost 6 weeks ago and i have my hormones under control never really even got depressed since we brought her home. any advice would be great as long as it is helpful. sorry this is so long i just really needed to give you all the facts.
