[quote=Anonymous]Take you SIL out of the equation - she has no incentive to change her behavior and it sounds like she also has a newborn (plus toddler). Demanding she lose the benefit from her own mother will destroy your relationship with her. Not worth it. Take your MIL out of the equation - she told you and DH she would watch your baby, it sounds like instead of SILs. But she has done nothing to make that happen. She may be reliable childcare for SIL but she has proven herself to be unreliable childcare for you and your baby. Yes, it sucks to pay for childcare but at least it can then be done on your terms - its who you want, when you want it, where you want it. Let Grandma be backup so that if the nanny is sick you aren’t stuck. You can even offer better vacation to sweeten the nanny deal with a back up grandparent. DH needs to get over it. It’s not about him. It’s about the baby and you all need to provide it, not create family rifts in order to get it.[/quote]
