Little Vent coming
Ok so on Wednesday MIL was here all day. She held Olivia ALL day.. Olivia is not a baby that likes to be held a lot plus it is hot.. I did say a few times I might pop her in her bed/rocker but MIL kept saying no shes fine . I bit my tongue and thought its only one day its only one day.. Well that night Olivia was very unsettled and cried alot.. but yesterday back to just us at home and happy to be inher rocker or bed and last night I had a really good night.. She was nicely settled happy to be fed and put back to bed...
So tonight. We have dinner at the inlaws with lots of rellies who haven't met her yet. S how do I go about saying she doesn't like to be held a lot without sounding like a total cow.. Everyone is going to want to cuddle the new toywoops I mean baby
and don't get wrong its nice they want to but at the same time I have 2 issues with this and have had the same one with the boys.. First theyare little and lots of handling by lots of people transfers germs and then they get used to being held and guess who is left with the crying baby who is unsettled?? ME!!
DH is going to take her once everyone has had a cuddle and put her down. All the rellies will respect this but MIL will go pick her up regardless of whether she is asleep or not.. *sigh* I don't want to be nasty tonight... anyone have any suggesstions for me
