How do you nicely tell someone that you know your baby better than they do? Because I feel like I'm not in charge of my own daughter when her grandparents are around.. They think they know best.
@mommarodey, yeah routine is what baby's need and hopefully that'll help. His fmaily did it behind my back but the look on their face when I'd walk into a room where they had my baby. Omg it was worth telling them to stop. Lol I had everyone going though me to do anything with her. Lol it'll get easier. They just miss having a baby around I bet. And since they don't see they baby often the spoiling will continue forever. You'll appreciate it when they pay for the unnecessary expensive things lol
@leahsmommi, that's a good point! And it's totally true. She's only 2.5 weeks old, we're still trying to make a routine for her and if they go changing things it will hurt the progress. I love them but they need to understand. @savvylynn1 the relationship has been strained for a while now so I'm just worried it would only get worse.
honestly , don't worry about doing it nicely. if you have to say look it's my baby and I asked you not to do that, that's what you gotta do. they aren't gonna be mad forever and they will eventually understand. YOU know what's best for your baby
Just tell them you appreciate all they are doing and love that they are there but if they (do things you don't want them doing-insert here haha like mine would be feed her ice cream) it's going to be hard to get her back to her routine when they leave. They might not get it but at least you tried. @mommarodey
You cant. Lol well I don't know to be honest. I used to almost argue after asking politely over and over not to give my child ice cream (she wasn't even one) and they wouldn't listen. My parents were more understanding but omg his dad was on another level.
