I am sick to death of my in laws telling me how fat Scarlett is, and asking me what I feed her! Does she look fat to you? No!

I'd tell them they were fat. ? every time they say she's fat respond with " no, but you're fat!" Lol jk. But I bet they would stop lol. She looks great. Some ppl have never seen a healthy child. I hear the " chunky" comments about my dd and it makes me mad too. Especially bc she isn't chunky!! She's healthy...there is a big difference.
She is far from fat or even chubby IMO. I'd tell them if they continue to call her fat or chubby they will not be seeing her. If they say that to you I can only imagine what they could possibly have said to her she doesn't deserve to have her self esteem ruined at such a young age. If they can't be respectful about her size as a toddler they don't deserve to be around.
She's perfect and adorable!!! Our kids were always made fun of by my in-laws. They were healthy weights but the rest of the babies in his family were born premature or addicted to drugs and were teeny tiny. It was annoying but I didn't get upset because I knew our children were happy and healthy!!
Your daughter looks like a normal weight toddler!
There is a large range of "normal" and she looks totally fine! She is super adorable, too!
But, that's not really the issue here. I would be fuming mad if anyone said that to me, especially if she was around. I make it my mission for my daughter (soon to be daughters) not to have any reasons to self-hate. As uncomfortable I am at my weight that I am, I am sure to never bring up anything about weight, not being pretty enough, dieting, etc. They are kids, they don't need to even know about that part of life. Whether they are a little overweight or not, whether they have something quirky about them or not, they need to know that they are perfect just the way they are. They will grow up with all these influences around them and I really think family need to plant the seeds early about self confidence and loving yourself. It seems like you are trying to do that, but have no support. Keep pushing back. Explain to them that you or your daughter do not need to hear that kind of stuff from the people who are supposed to love her unconditionally. Tell them you lead a lifestyle where you see no jeopardy to her health and you feel like she is a happy toddler and that's what matters.
Best of luck, I hope they see the light soon!
They need to kiss your azz there is nothing wrong with that gorgeous little baby. Some in-laws just think they have the right to say what's on their mind like they have no mute button. Next time they bring it up say " Yeah ok that's nice" and walk away I bet they will shut up then. Lol
I'm so glad people think I'm not over reacting being so angry about this. Thanks again everyone x
She is definitely not fat! She's beautiful! This makes me livid for you! Maybe I'm overreacting here but if they continued I'd tell them they would not be seeing her until it stopped. But considering your husband seems to be in denial not sure if it would fly with him.
What horrible people. ?
If they do it often don't let them near her! I'd hate for my children to think badly of themselves so young. My mum said something along those lines, not thinking it was wrong, but it is.
She was skinny as a freakin take growing up and only out I. Weight after children because she has no idea about exercise or healthy eating, which is probably why I was overweight growing up, but I never want my son to feel the way I did growing up.
I've been teaching him about healthy eating and what fuels out body and exercise, nothing to do with what we look like
My in-laws friend said my dd was fat. I responded with, "well, you are ugly, now how does it feel to be put down?" Never again have I heard any opinions.... From any of them.
My dd is built ford tough. She will not be petite in any way. She is muscular and NOT fat. I cant wait to tell her what a strong, healthy physique she has. Definitely needs sports in her life.
I also think some people feel its normal that a baby has baby fat or to comment like that. Many mean no harm. Some are just miserable with themselves and have to find something wrong with everything.
Ugh! Why do people think it's okay to say things like that?! We don't even allow the word "fat" in our home and if I ever hear anyone saying that, I will tell them to stop or I won't let them in dd's life.
My entire family used to say that about me when I was little. I grew up and developed a TERRIBLE eating disorder. So frustrated for you, op.
She's NOT fat. Or even chubby imo. She is adorable. Sorry, I just got way too angry at that. Lol.
They never seem to say it when he is around, so when I've told him, he thinks it's all innocent and they just say it as joke. But it's not a funny joke when it's said every time we are there!
But he is a big mummy's boy, and always sticks up for her.
But thanks every one :) she is perfect in my eyes xD
Your daughter does NOT look fat. I would tell them that your daughter is fine the way she is and that they need to stop projecting their over weight insecurities onto your daughter. Haha! See what they say about that. What does your SO say? He needs to tell them to stop that nonsense too.
My mil told me to put my son a diet when he was under one because he was chubby. To this day I can't believe she said that. Was I supposed to starve my kiddo??!
She's a cutie!!
