I realize I'm very possesive about certain things. It was very challening for me to have my family help me pack my things to move, since I had just delivered it would have been too hard for me.
Now I'm being told I'm too possesive of my daughter. I like to keep her close to me and don't see why she needs to be away from me. I will pass her off to her father for me to have a bath or get some things accomplished around the house. But as for letting my MIL take her for and 1 or 2. It's not happening. I understand that she's just taking her for a walk, but i don't see why I can't join her. My MIL specifically has a really bad habit of not returning my dd when she's upset feeling that she should be able to comfort her (but can't seem to understand that seeing her once a week will not develop the attachment necessary). Luckly my parents are use to my unusual demands and respect them. When my dd is upset the pass her back, and that I'm not likely to let them take her for an hour, but i will let them take her for 15 min walk-if she's in a really good mood (but they are over about 4 times a week for and hour or two). Does this sound like I'm being too possesive. I feel it's very important for our relationship (my dd and me) to be well balanced and would appreciate feedback from you other more experience parents. Thank you
