Sterla tell your mum that your and DS are not ready but she will be the first on your list when you are! I have found it hard with DD2 to leave her with anyone she is breastfeed, won't take a bottle and gets very upset if I am not there, she gets extremely grumpy the day after anyone else watches her even DH! This is the opposite to DD1 who would breastfeed or have a bottle and was happy to be around anyone, she was in special care and has always been around lots of people and had bottles so I think its made a difference so she was babysat at about 8 weeks.

It is only the past couple of weeks that she was happy with him because she is on solids during the day with an occasional feed. We had a sitter on Saturday night as we had a friend's 30th and she wasn't able to get DD2 to feed so I was up at midnight, 4.30am and 7.30am with her.

Take your time and let DH watch her for longer periods of time first and if your mum wants a girls breakfast take DS, he still needs his mum!
