[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would let it go....talk to dh, and make him bring it up.

I have interfering inlaws to, who will order my 3 yr old a framing can of coke at restaurants even when I say no. Luckily dd doesn't defy me and won't sip it, even tho grandma is egging her on.  Just had my second baby 2 weeks ago and grandma is vehemently against me nursing and only believes in formula. She enrages me. Calls my mom and me non stop to make sure dc is getting formula and not breast milk!!!, I lie and say yes and go about my business. Dh travels too much to navigate it all, but I make him handle situations that are to his kids benefit, ie no soft drinks, we are nursing, tell ur mom to get over it.

But, apart from them overstepping with my kids they love them and men well, and if I said something the situation would become too sensitive....I want the kids not to feel the tension, so I let it go, but don't give on.[/quote]

You should r4eally just tell your MIL to shout the heel up about how/what you feed your baby.  I would not lie about this or put up with it for one minute.  Have your mom tell her to shut up too.

As for the soda, I qwould be seriously pissed if anyone did this to me.  They actually encourage your daughter to drink it in front of you after you have said no????  I wuld get up from the table, pick up my child, and leave.  I would not agree to have a meal with them outside of my own home again until they apologized and never did it again.

Seriously, PP< this is the WORST, most OBNOXIOUS, and absolutely unforgivable behavior I think I have heqard about from in laws.  If you dont put your foot down now, while you children are sio small, these ILs will cause serious damage to your children and your relqtionship with your children when they are older.  This is DANGEROUS!!![/quote]
