That sounds troublesome Fifi. Can you just gently explain that it's not in fact her baby and that she's welcome to visit every week or so?</FONT><P>Perhaps she's feeling lonely or depressed? <img align="absmiddle" src="http://forums.parentscanada.com/Skins/LiquidViolet/Images/EmotIcons/w00t.gif" border="0" title="w00t">Tue, 01 Jul 2008 08:39:27 GMTonline-editorhttp://forums.parentscanada.com/Topic4626-17-1.aspx<FONT size=5>My Mom is a very keen grandparent but I often find that I can't get her to get the hint that we need time to ourselves as a new little family. She's made comments about our newborn being "her baby too." It's kinda making me crazy but I don't want to hurt her feelings. Any advice on how to draw some boundaries - nicely?</FONT></P><P><FONT size=5>Thanks!</FONT>Sun, 29 Jun 2008 14:48:49 GMTfifi2
