MIL

Anyone faces this issue as well? My MIL is constantly telling me and everyone else that my LO ( 5mths old) wants/needs our helper. For example, if she's crying and I'm carrying to soothe her. MIL would carry her away from me and pass her to our helper, saying that LO wants/needs her.. It's making me feel like a bad Mother as if I'm not being able to soothe my own LO.

Don't let her do that! Insist on carrying baby yourself. My MIL doesn't do that but she'd talk nonsense to baby and I'd just tell her off. Plus she should know better that babies do fuss/cry a bit more with mama because they want our attention. Dont ever think you are a bad mom! Only we know what's best for our own child.
