At 5 months though? I have a 6 month old and I’m definitely happy for family to take him out of my handsI remember vividly the wildly possessive feelings of “MY BABY” with my first; it was all very lovely having family and friends coo over her, but then I’d suddenly feel inexplicably RIGHT OKAY GIVE HER BACK NOW PLEASE.
I felt that way in the early days for sure. I remember my Mum offering to hold my 2 day old baby so I could eat and I felt like if I accepted the offer it meant I wasn't coping. I feared my over-bearing sister in law wouldn't give my 5 week old back if she cried and needed feeding. But not at 5 months though?!I blocked her ages ago as I can’t stand the little twerp (although *cough* I can’t stop hate-reading here) but I do have to say, in vague defence(!)

Also she is very happy to have multiple friends over each weekend and go out for endless brunches. Seems it is just family she has the issue with.Yes - she's 5 MONTHS old. You are not in that crazy new born stage any more.
You are a grown up woman, out to lunch with family and your daughter. Behave like an adult. Let your family enjoy the baby.
She’s way too much of a control freak, it has to be her doing every feed, comfort, wind, etc. My SIL was a bit like that, she was such a martyr about it all.Yes - she's 5 MONTHS old. You are not in that crazy new born stage any more.

Shock horror they were probably drinking alcohol near to the precious frey bentos bear bee baby - god forbid she might inhale the fumes. Quick Ben - fire up the car, we must immediately escape for an insta-worthy mini break to recover. (i guess Ben's heavy work schedule is over??)
Just seen on 'mummas' stories she's on the way to Bath this morning. mumma to the rescue half way across the country.Constant stalker & first time poster but could not resist signing up when I saw her stories this morning!!!
Bath Christmas markets will break her!!
it’s crowded, small, busy & very very overwhelming (coming from a mum of 2 who has managed to use public transport without a breakdown unlike Rebecca!)
It’s embarrassing really. Her mum fosters this behaviour too.Just seen on 'mummas' stories she's on the way to Bath this morning. mumma to the rescue half way across the country.
True.I felt that way in the early days for sure. I remember my Mum offering to hold my 2 day old baby so I could eat and I felt like if I accepted the offer it meant I wasn't coping.

As in three YEARS old.True.
Some people seem never to move on from it. My sister thinks hers is the king of all the babies and he’s three now.
I used to feel the same. It’s such a bizarre feeling.I blocked her ages ago as I can’t stand the little twerp (although *cough* I can’t stop hate-reading here) but I do have to say, in vague defence(!)

Dont forget this was her dads side of the family..isnt that the cousin with the tattos or something like that she talked about before in a derogatory way. Her mum probably hates them all too lol . Grabbys such a snob.Just when I thought she couldn’t be any more of a nasty little brat she’s excelled herself with her story about her family. God forbid they would want to fuss over a baby(!) If I was her mum reading that I’d be absolutely gutted. After all her parents do for her! You’re a vile witch Grabby
