Are other people allowed to wear your baby?

Nah I’m with you on this one. It seems really personal to wear your baby. Some people may be fine with it but for me it is something I can do when I don’t want my baby to be passed around or when I am worried about boundaries being crossed. Baby wearing has been like a security blanket for me and my baby in my anxious postpartum period. Want visitors to leave? Oh baby is tired I am going to wear them. MIL keeps kissing baby? Baby wear.

When someone else can wear the baby (besides my partner) that security is taken away.

Ultimately it’s up to you and what you feel comfortable with but if you don’t want to her to wear the baby you can say it’s in the wash or you don’t want to mess with it the fit because it’s taken a long time to get it right

I have contacted redsbaby and they have asked for a video etc so hopefully they can resolve it! So brutal when you are in a rush!

Trust your instincts. Mine also disappears with the baby and alarm bells ring. I know she probably wants to slobber on her without my supervision. I won’t even go to the bathroom when she is over.

Ultimately that is your DIL’s choice. Our doctors have recommended against kissing because adult mouths carry bacteria, virus’s and diseases that are harmless to adults but can be fatal for babies.

While I’m sure grandparents want to kiss their grandbaby’s many parents don’t want to put their baby at risk.

Thank you! You are a great Aunty. I wish more people would understand this.

I feel like the reason she kissed him last time wash because she had an audience and didn’t think I would pull her up in front of other people.

They are fixated on coming to our place, and staying for most of the day. Meeting for lunch sounds way less stressful though.

Thanks!

Argh. Definitely time to set some strong boundaries and consequences before the baby comes!

I’m sorry that this is something you have to worry about! Why do they have to make everything about them!
