Is this normal ?

I’m not sure how old your baby is could you baby wear? So she’s not able to take baby?

You need to put your foot down and if she doesnt listen stop going around her till she understands

@Josie baby is 6 weeks old. Lol she I know will ask me to take baby out so she can carry her.

@Emma Really wish I could avoid her but can’t as it will cause issues 😩

Remember it’s your child. There’s no such thing as someone taking them out of your arms without permission. You need to say no and stand firm on that. This whole situation sets a really bad precedent regarding both your feelings and your daughter’s safety and autonomy. She’s not a parcel that can just be passed around lol. I’m sorry you’re going through this.

It's disgusting she thinks she can walk all over you like that. I absolutely would not let this happen though. If you don't feel able to say no, then wear baby in a carrier.

If she’s only 6 weeks she’s due a regression of sorts so I’d baby wear and say baby is having a difficult time and needs to be close to me right now if and when I feel she’s ready to be held by someone else I’ll let you know but it’s important for baby to be in her safe place which is me. I’m sorry your going through this and I don’t know why people think it’s ok for a mother to beg to have her baby back this notion of thinking they need a break when in actual fact we just want to hold our own babies. Also I think you need to sit and have a convo with your husband and tell him how you feel in these situations so he can back you up try not to say I don’t like your mum 😂 but just along the lines of if I ask for baby back I mean I want baby back and nobody should take baby unless I as mum have offered I hope this helps

Its hard i get it but its either avoid or let her carry on and you and baby being upset and stressed which isnt fair

When she goes to take her you just need to stand up for yourself and your baby and say ‘I’m just going to hold her for now’ and if she goes to take her again you just repeat ‘I’m just going to hold her for now’ and then if she tries again you can then ask ‘why do you keep trying to take her off me? I’m happy holding her, thank you’ don’t get into a discussion about it and if she makes you feel uncomfortable you can even say ‘I don’t feel comfortable here I’m just going to leave’ and pack up and leave. I saw a video the other day that was saying boundaries are what you will do- so if she won’t leave you alone, your boundary is that you will leave. If she’s in your house- go to your bedroom and shut the door. If she comes in ask her to leave - your husband needs to back you on this though so he has to be on the same page.

Put your foot down NOW asap. She will keep on overstepping your boundaries as a mother because she knows she can get away with it. My MIL did the same exact thing to me and eventually complained I breastfed my baby too much. She was so abusive to me throughout my entire experience of being a first time mom. She didn’t stop until I eventually told her firmly, no.
