Ok I'm just venting here.

I started going back to work full time last week and my in laws (both retired and live with us) watch the baby. My husband usually starts work around 10 or 11 so he gets the morning with our son before he passes him to his parents until I get home. I start work before baby wakes up.

Today was an exception since my husband started work really early so my son spent all day with his grandparents (from 645am to 445pm) until I got home. Well a bit later after I came home I'm making my plate for dinner and my mother in law asks where my son was? And i told her he was sitting in the room with my husband. So she's like well I'll take him so you can eat. But i told her he's fine. Then she asked well aren't you guys eating. And I said yes. Then she's like well what's he doing and i told her he's playing. At this point I'm getting irritated with all the questions. mind you she had just made a plate for herself for dinner and was about to eat too.

So i told my husband what happened (just to vent) because it is annoying that she got to spend all day with my baby yet still wants to take him while I'm home. My husband snapped at me and we ended up arguing. He said I'm too controlling and overly sensitive with the baby and I told him I felt like I was being reasonable about wanting my time when I come home. Obviously every moment with my son is precious to me since I'm gone majority of the day and he knows I feel very guilty for leaving him. Ive had a really hard time going back to work and leaving the baby and I just want some support. Unfortunately this isn't the first time we've argued about his parents regarding the baby. Definitely isn't going to be the last.
