I hope everyone had a nice Xmas with their bubs.

Sorry just a me post today cos I have visitors coming soon.

Normally I really like my ILs but I found them so annoying on Xmas Eve and Xmas day. They kept commenting on the fact that Maya was crying a lot and telling DH and I what we should do. And also making comments on how my nieces were never like that! Arghhh! It was really ****ing me off. DH stood up for me and Maya which was nice. And basically we knew the reason why she was crying so much was cos he has such a big family and she's not slept somewhere else before so it was all overwhelming for her. But they kept saying "oh she's got wind - you have to burp her". Sure enough as soon as we got home she's been settled again! I felt like a bad mum all Xmas day though.

My MIL also didn't believe us when we said Maya won't take a bottle. She was planning to baby sit Maya on Xmas Eve and actually cracked it at me when I said we were taking Maya with us. Anyway she went on and on at us for ages and finally I caved. Then she called us to come home early cos Maya wouldn't take a bottle! Derrrrrr!

I have noticed that Maya now doesn't like being held by anyone other than DH and I. I assume that means she knows her mum and dad now and doesn't like strangers.

Tomorrow we are staying at a nice hotel in the city. My hospital wanted me out early and gave me a gift to stay one night at a hotel as incentive to leave. Bizarre! Anyway, tomorrow was the only day I could find, before the voucher expires at the end of Jan, that DH and I are free and the hotel is available. We get late checkout and breakky included too. So just have to sort out dinner. And they have cots we can use so we are taking Maya with us.
