do u let ur MIL to take care ur NB?

Feel abit contradition, MIL want to handle NB everything from morning till night. Feel grateful that got a "nanny" help to take care everything but on the other side feel lesser bonding time with NB.... especially everytime im feeding my LO,my MIL wan to intervene, say she will do it. Even heard she said wan to carry my NB home to stay with her..currently NB still staying with me. what do u think?

both my husband and i wanted to be hands on and from day 1 we never let my mom or MIL help with anything, not changing diapers, not feeding, nothing. it's ok if they want to spend time with baby, but I'm also always mindful of what my MIL says to my baby

me too.. i prefer to hands on.. but my hubby quite dependant on his mum to take care as he said his mum "more experience" in handling the baby.. my MIL did everything from changing diaper, feeding and showering..
