Rant -MIL

Recently my 3weeks baby got admitted due to vomiting of milk & constipation for 5days. MIL blame me for eating rubbish, saying that my confinement meals have 'fried' items, its unhealthy. I shouldn't breast feed baby. It's because of what I eat that causes baby to be constipated. I was so upset. I run away from home back to my mother's place. During my first week of confinement, before my milk supply came in, she say that I got no supply unlike her younger days, she got so much milk. She cook confinement meals for me (first week) but I don't like her cooking , she not happy. Is it wrong for me to run away from home?

Sorry to dampen your mood but this will not stop as long as she stays as your MIL. For my case, it's my own mother. I was blamed for anything happened to my baby. Even when he is already 28mo, I am blamed to have eaten something wrong that's why he fell sick now. Fact is he was breastfed till 15mo, how amazing whatever I ate can affect him till now. No logic at all! The Mothers do not have any knowledge at all, but wanna act they know alot because they think they are older. Just ignore and move on. No point risking suffering from Pdd because of such people.
