[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you shouldn’t be miffed. It’s completely understandable they’d want mother-daughter time. Plus, did you have someone to watch baby? Even more understandable that they wanted an adult outing. (Maybe they would have invited you if you had an obvious option for a sitter?)[/quote]

Just to play devil's advocate for a second, after a week at home with my newborn I was going stir crazy and popped her in a sling and went all over - museums, brunches, lunches, walks, coffee meetups with friends, errands, etc. I wasn't going to leave my newborn with a sitter and she slept on me as we walked.

I took a my baby all over the place when I was on maternity leave, including to lunch with friends and family and to museums. But that's really not the point. OP's MIL and SIL wanted to do an outing just the two of them. It's not about OP's baby or what is an appropriate place to take a baby.

They shouldn't have made such a big deal of it in front of OP, but it's okay they wanted to do it just the two of them.[/quote]
