MIL problems

How do you deal with MIL when you don't agree with her feeding method? Eg feed strictly by schedule (every 3 hours) even if baby doesnt show hunger cues. Or not washing hands with soap before carrying and feeding baby. How to tell her to change? The elderly always think they are right and stubborn to change. Feel powerless as a mother to my child 😣

Is she your main help? I think it's hard to respectfully change her mind. They may defer to authority/publications so would it help if you can find some internet articles that support your view, or tell her it's the doctor's specific instructions? Now that it's Covid period, it may be a point to raise to ensure she always washes her hands, the baby is not vaccinated after all.
