My mother in law has been a big help with the baby - but she is always around - and insists that the baby be in her room at night - so that I can get some sleep. As a result I am getting no "alone time" with my baby. It is making me feel miserable...but she is so helpful - how do i say something without hurting her feelings.

I use the pretext of breastfeeding. So every time baby cries, I tell her, oh time for breastfeeding. And then I take baby to my room and shut the door and take baby out of the room once I feel I have had enough alone time ;p
