OMGosh! I'm so angry for you! I've gone in circles with my MIL too. My oldest was born with a milk protein allergy, he couldn't process it. I have food allergies so we've not done dairy and he didn't have real peanut butter until a few months ago and he's 5. She would sneak it to him and he'd have blistering rashes. I finally showed her once and said if she did it again, he'd be staying the night at her house and she can deal with the guilt of giving him something that HURTS him!
I'm so sorry she did that. Since becoming a parent, I've been judged for every decision we made.
I used cloth diapers, my mom couldn't understand why! I nursed for 19 months, why would I do that?? it was just constant.
I'm glad you stood your ground and I really hope your husband backs you up! |
