[quote=Anonymous]I bet if MIL was NOT coming over all the time, NOT giving endless unsolicited advice, etc., but she referred to your DS as "her baby" it wouldn't phase you, so make sure that when communicating with her, the focus is on the stuff that is the real problem. Also, this communication I'm suggested needs to come from your DH. It's his mom, and he needs to have a conversation with just the two of them where he makes it very clear that she needs to back off. Coming over every day is absurd. DH should say, "we'd love for you to come over on ___. [This time] is best for baby's schedule. If she keeps pushing for more, DH just has to keep gently but firmly repeating that those are the days/times that work. This is on him. Good luck! Hopefully she'll calm down.[/quote]
