[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have your husband deal with it - but provide probing questions for him.
..... make sure your SIL understands that 9 month olds nap about 4 hours a day
...... go to bed around 7PM
..... do not walk

So your husband can ask ..... are you thinking of me holding her?   Have you recently seen a toddler who did not have a nap and what they are like?  Do you want a screaming child to be a part of your wedding?

What is the exit strategy for the screaming child?  [/quote]

Not to mention, nine months old is a prime age for separation anxiety, so the far better solution is likely having the OP and baby sit out for the wedding ceremony, have a brief appearance at the reception, then maybe have a babysitter upstairs in the hotel room (if the reception's where the hotel is) once Mom puts the baby there to bed and comes back down to the reception.

It's one thing if SIL had a history of behaving like a sane and reasonable person, but the volatility of both SIL and the baby...too much.[/quote]
