I recently got separated and moved back to my parents house. My baby is not use to my parents and often cries. He can tolerate them the most for a minute. This is going to be hard. If any of you ladies have gone through what i'm going, how long will it take for my son to get use to my family. Also, I should put this out there his family has really babied my son and my family babies him but not really. Someone please help me.
@kambam, It just breaks my heart to see him cry. He'll cry and cry and cry.
Leave the baby and do something for yourself for an hour if you can. He'll adjust and you'll get a break.
@kambam, Yes, honestly he's a good dad and I'll never not let him see his kid. Yeah that's what i'm trying to do because I don't want him to feed off of that. When this whole thing happened I was stressed and he felt it.
He'll still be seeing them often tho right? If you're stressed he'll feed off your energy too so try to stay positive.
@kambam, Thank you. This is so hard. My son is so use to his dads family. They are good people but his dad and I are just don't get a long.
My son hates my moms place mostly because of the dogs and the yelling. He's going to be really needy for a while but he will settle. Have a spot that's his with all his favorite toys/books in a somewhat quiet spot so he can play and disconnect from socializing if he needs to. Go on walks. All else fails just leave him to figure it out and he'll be ok
I know but sometimes they cry more if they see you there 😣 do what feels right mama. He will adjust I think though. Well, he has no choice right 😐
