Going to lose my sh!t in about 3 minutes.

I swear to god MIL, you need to check Hunter's daily "report" card and see how/if he napped at daycare when you pick him up.  AND if he ate. 

Yesterday she accompanied us to his 6 month shots/appointment.  I asked if she had fed him.  "I never check those sheets!"  she stated.  Poor boy went 5 hours almost without a bottle.  Too long.

 Today I picked him up from her house.  "Did he nap for you?" I innocently asked, because the daycare report card indicated he'd only taken 2 20 minutes naps.

"No, we don't nap at Grandma's when we can play instead."

 AHHAHGHAGHALKJL:AJ:OIJOIJOPPOIAFHAHAHAHAG:AOIFJOI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Thank you for listening.  I am going to go attend to my super cranky baby now.

Re: Going to lose my sh!t in about 3 minutes.

  • Grandma should be put on a PIP.

  • You are a much nicer woman than I could ever be . . .

    If that were my MIL babysitting priveledges would be revoked.

  • No naps!?!  Wow... You'd think she'd know to check those sheets!  (I used to work at a day care too many moons to count.)  That is super important, especially at infant age.
  • WOW! MIL might need another talking to. Seriously, I understand she wants to see H, but she needs to respect your wishes....he's your son!
  • Wow, I can't believe she didn't check the sheets!  Naps and food are essentials!  How did it not cross her mind that H needed them?!  I hope she shapes up.

  • Naps are so important to babies.  That is when the process everything.  I think she may need a serious talking to.

  • Ugh, I would make your DH have a serious talk with MIL. She's behaving like a child!
  • AGH!  My MIL is the same way!!  I don't have LO yet, but she "babysits" for B&SIL.  One night we were out with them (the kids were 1 and 3 at the time) BIL called at midnight to see how things were going and to see if it was ok to be out for a couple of more hours. 

    MIL: Everything's fine!  Do you want to talk to (niece) she wants to say hi to daddy.

    BIL: Mom, what is (niece) doing up at midnight???

    MIL: Oh, they're both up, we're watching a movie and having some candy!!

    I can't wait!!!

  • Its sooooo frustrating.  Hunter thrives on structure.  On Thursdays and Fridays (when I pick him up from daycare) he does SO WELL.  Naps once we get home, eats, plays, eats again, down for "first sleep/night nap" then back up on schedule for a bath.

    M, Tues, Weds are like a sh!tstorm of screamy cranky baby.  We've talked to her but she just doesn't get it.  Its like talking to a brick Wall (I hope you get the pun I am making!)
