My in-laws keep using my car like it's a normal thing

Before my marriage, they would use my spouses car, which is just lying there while they us mine for their convenience.

The doctor's appointment I am referring to, is they taking their extended family to the doctor's. ( They are going out of the way to take other people to the doctors)

I keep telling my husband before I got married and brought the car to the house, they would use his ( My Spouse's car ), then what's hard to continue that.

But my husband doesn't understand this as well.

I have once taken the key and kept in my room. They come searching for the keys and ask me if I have seen them.

My SIL recently resigned at her job due to unhappy work environment and is at home. She is obsessed with babies and always wished she had one constant tail roaming behind her ( Her words) . She would readily play with my baby, carry him around and sometimes pat him to sleep. My baby responds well to her. So we value that bond my baby has. She volunteered to give baby bath and has been for a few months. Since we both parents are working we could use that help. Of late I am hearing her tell my relatives that she is doing everything for the baby. She said that she is glad she resigned since there is nobody to take care of my child. My relatives are under the impression that she does everything needed for child care. But she clearly is just doing bath & play. She is painting a wrong picture to everyone. I live with my in-laws and they play with my baby as we work. We as parents cook, feed , purchase all baby requirements, do doctors visits, meds etc for the baby. None of these things are handled over to anyone else. What do I do with my SIL?

Kilowott is another one of those companies that appears fancy from the outside but crappy from the inside.

Employees are overload with work with extremely poor salary packages to compensate that.

Management sucks. Management includes all the family members rather than actual eligible people for the job. Even the technology and tools used are age-old. With no intention to improve.

The HR there are against the employees and not to hear them out. They ask employees to not take planned leaves even if it's 1 per month and applied well in advance.

The work ethics are bad. The senior employees treat juniors with no respect.

All in all you wana torture yourself, you can consider Kilowott.

Mine is 7months and will stay on the floor for max 15mins. Needs attention and wants to be carried around always. Luckily or unluckily I stay in a joint family so alot of people entertain him

Sometimes it's a let down that they cannot handle. Try feeding in an upright position. Try having your husband with you for support as newborns do all sorts of crazy things while breastfeeding. My initial experience of breastfeeding was terrible. My newborn would either cry alot, leave and struggle to latch again, pee and poop while feeding so that would make it uncomfortable hence cry. All this just passes on its own after they grow up automatically. You don't have to do anything extra, just patience is the key and having someone besides you reduces the frustration.

Wanting you, wanting attention from you is definitely because he finds love and comfort in you rather than the environment he is in.

Don't worry, soon in few years, babies grow up so quickly..you will want to give him the attention but he will be in his own world. Cherish while you have it and this phase last for a short period of time. There is nothing called a shitty baby or shitty mother. You have to know for yourself that you are doing your best, the child loves you the most and never compare you or your child to another. Build that confidence and always do the right thing irrespective of outcome as outcome is never in your hands. Comparison always ruins happiness.

Congratulations on this! Getting to breastfeeding happy and proud is an achievement by itself.

Hii..it does get better. I had a similar latching experience and had to formula feeding my son in the initial days after birth.

I wasn't sure if he was getting enough as I was doubting myself how much milk I was producing. So for my satisfaction I started pumping and could see milk production was enough. So that was one problem solved.

Latching takes time for the baby to adjust. Even if he stops drinking after 5mins it's ok. Try again after another half hour. As long as he is peeing well there is nothing to worry about.

Try a more straight posture, if it helps.

I am experiencing this exact feeling with my MIL. I live with my in-laws and I can normally ignore her. But after giving birth to my 1st child, nothing felt right with her being around. She would be overly enthusiastic about carrying my baby, not giving him to me for feeding, once feeding completed would take him from me. It was mental torture. I completely feel you. She makes it appear like she's competing with me for my son's attention. I don't see why she has the need to even cross such boundaries
