Guest guest Posted June 29, 2000 Report Share Posted June 29, 2000 Vent all you want ! All I can say is I am happy that I don't live near my families. Although sometimes I wish I had more time w/ my MIL then my own mom. I can't stand being around my family at all. And none of them even know that I am still bfing. They think that I quit back at christmas, hello baby was only five months old and they thought that it was great that I quit. My IL's know that I am still nursing and that I plan to for awhile and they are so supportive ugh, anyway..... ===== annette icq#17233927, YIM=penna4yrs, AIM=annie4yrs wife to david mom to josh, curtis, and luke " I'd rather be jetskiing, but sometimes God gives me other things to do.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2000 Report Share Posted June 29, 2000 , My Mil is the same way, so many times she comes over just when i got both the younger kids asleep, the older ones will be at school, so it would be perfect for me to either get on the computer, or take a nap. She comes over knowing it is nap time(she lives right next door) She would knock on the door, and I would answer all tired acting, she would say whatcha doing, I would tell her taking a nap. Would she get the hint hell no, she would jsut come in and visit, and leave right before the little ones wake up. and some days I look so forward to taking alittle nap(especially becasue my kids get up at 5 to 6 in the morning, and my baby dont go to sleep some nights until 11, last night it was midnight. She sleeps late, but the older kids gt up early. they dont need me to gt up, but they start argueing about something , and then I am up anyway, and then I ahve a hard time going back to sleep. anyway i know how you feel.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2000 Report Share Posted June 29, 2000 , I am so with you on the venting thing! My in-laws just left Monday from a five day visit to meet their new grandson and DH's graduation. It was a nightmare! I usually get along with them pretty well, but now that Blake is here they really got on my nerves! Blake was teething pretty bad and MIL would give him Tylenol and Orajel without asking me first. FIL thought he was constantly starving b/c he sucks his thumb when he's tired and was chewing his fists from his teeth, but to FIL if there was a finger of thumb in Blake's mouth he was hungry. Oh and I had to hear about how much happier Blake will be when he can have cereal or food so he won't be hungry all the time. AAAHHHH!!! Blake goes 10-11 hours at night without eating and only nurses every 2 1/2 to 5 hours during the day. Not to mention he is 12 weeks and weighs over 15 pounds. It's obvious he is not starving! Now I'm venting. Tina and Blake 4-2-00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2000 Report Share Posted June 29, 2000 When my twins were three weeks old my MIL told me that my milk wan't rich enough becuase the girls weren't sleeping through the night yet. Thankfully I was pretty informed as a new mom, and didn't listen to her. She was one that didn't breastfeed either. And every once in a while she pipes up with stories about babies who starved to death becuase they weren't breastfed.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2000 Report Share Posted June 29, 2000 I just had to jump in here!! I have a MIL that I don't really get along with - it's a long story so I won't get into it. But basically she is nice to my face and " sugar coats " everything. Anyways, she didn't nurse her son - my hubby. Because I am nursing it seems like she's always trying to give me some medical excuse for not bfing him. One day we were talking about bfing and she told me that she had no milk and that she tried nursing him on the first day but her milk never came in but that her legs were awfully swollen. She then says to me " my milk must have gone into my legs. " I couldn't believe that she even said that. Anyways I couldn't even respond to that because it's so idiotic!! Anyways when we go to leave and she walks us to the door she says this again about why she couldn't bf him. After she said this again I couldn't help myself so I said " Well I guess you should have tried nursing with your toes " I don't think she knew what to think - if I was being serious or not - so I didn't laugh I just pretended like what I said was totally logical. Anyways, I thought I'd throw in my 2 cents worth about my MIL.
