[quote=Anonymous]I think you can draw the line at where DD sleeps. But otherwise, she probably thinks she's lightening your load. You may feel guilty at being divided between DD and infant, and feel bad that you can't give DD the same kind of attention you used to. So to you your mother's behavior underscores that, like she's trying to fill in a perceived gap (not saying she perceives a gap, but rather that YOU fear there may be one). Your mom can NEVER, EVER replace you. And it may be a bonus flow of focused attention for your DD, who now has to share the spotlight. View it as a gift you're giving your DD: special time as Grandma's #1. [/quote]
