Oh the PIL's!!

When my DS was around 4-5 months, I told them I wasn't ready to put him on solids yet, and that I'd start around 6 months. Once when I came home from work, my DP came home with DS and he said that DS ate some a tiny little bit of food and he really liked it!

I was SOOOOO mad! They knew that I wanted to wait a little bit longer, and that I actually wanted to be there to experience it with him. My DP didn't really care but it was an important issue for me! I think they got the idea after my SIL told them off in Spanish that they had no right to feed him. She beat me to it.. which is probably a good thing hehe..

My DS is their 9th grandchild, so I know they knew what they were doing however it wasn't their place. It was just the principle :( With my DD I'm not so picky because she's always been keen to eat from 4 months old.. and it is MY choice to give her food WHEN I like!
