    Thanks everyone!

    She was OK this time - I must be getting more militant as she'd taken some of the clothes back and told me she'd kept receipts for the others! The only one she couldn't take back was a tigger t-shirt, but she thinks my sister would like to see him in it.

    She did really annoy me with his feeding (constantly crying that he was choking whenever he ate anything) and wanting to give him honey, ice cream, scone, custard... but in the end just got a Look and she didn't give him food. I am dreading him understading this; how will I say no when he knows she has offered food (a lot of her cooking has nuts in). DS has now dropped the breakfast feed and I'm a bit sad at that, but never mind.

    Ryn,
    Just wanted to say how lovely it is that you are such strong, independent person with your own views and opinions. It can be very hard to "break the mold" when you have been raised with certain values and beliefs, but you are forming your own beliefs and challenging your family's way of doing things - which can be awfully confronting. Good on you. Keep it up. Your mum will soon learn that if she wants a happy relationship with her grandson, then she will have to start to listen to (and learn from) his wonderful mother!! Keep doing exactly as you are and enjoy your beautiful breastfed little boy.
