Just venting.

My husbands grandma thankfully lives 4hrs from us, but ever time she comes to visit she always starts drama. When our daughter was about due I posted a thing on fb about not kissing her, texting or calling because visiting, and not overstaying your welcome. The first time his grandma came to visit she kept asking me if I was going to be “one of those moms” that follows the doctors rules. I said uh yea, that’s my job as a nurse to follow dr orders, and it’s meant to keep my daughter safe. She then started kissing all over my daughter so I was pissed. She came over the next day and kept making comments about “not wanting to overstay her welcome” with attitude. She then went crying to his aunt who lives across the road from us, saying she didn’t know that was a rule, and she just wanted to love her granddaughter. 🙄 anyways she comes back to visit last week picks up the baby, and when she starts fussing his grandma says well I’d put you on the floor but I don’t know if mommy likes all those germs. She kept saying she was going to take the baby to the parade the following day too. I told my husband absolutely not! She’s so rude and disrespectful! I was so anxious just thinking about her driving with our daughter in the car. I just had a feeling since she couldnt follow any of my other “rules” she would not buckle her into her car seat right just to piss me off. Or if I tried to show her how to buckle her in correctly, she would have got snotty with me and told me “I know how to do it I raised three kids”.

His grandma left crying trying to be dramatic and get attention. Now my husband is frustrated with me because he said we have bad communication, and he would have made sure she was in the car seat correctly. He says we always do stuff with my family and my family is always the one to watch her, and how I don’t know his family. We go to his aunts Halloween Christmas and family reunion every year. We see my family for Christmas and thanksgiving. I’m just irritated with everything in this situation.

My husband keeps saying I hate his family and all of this. I’ve told him I don’t hate them, I just wish they would show respect for me. She’s our daughter not hers! She didn’t raise perfect children so I don’t think we need her telling me or giving me attitude disrespect because of how we choose to raise our kid.
