I have a baby girl who is 3 weeks old.I don't really consider myself over protective and have let pretty much anyone who asks (that I know well) hold my baby but I am becoming increasingly uncomfortable with my mother in law and my boyfriends brothers and sisters seeing my baby.As soon as we arrive at their house the baby is taken from me or the pram and is not given back until we leave.the children are 4-7 and get in the babies face constantly,kissing her and just standing far too close,both me and my boyfriend have tried telling them to back away a little but my mother in law just says that their young and basically to get over it.I don't want my baby to get ill and no one else seems to share my concerns.I think the issue is made worse because we have to see them all the time.If we don't see them for one day we get texts and phone calls saying that they miss the baby and that we need to go over there.Its now starting to become a problem between me and my boyfriend because I'm constantly trying to get out of seeing them everyday and so he's offered to take her there himself while I stay home but I'm too uncomfortable because I won't be able to control what's happening when I'm not there.I haven't told my boyfriend how I'm feeling because I don't know how to say it without him feeling that I'm attacking his family because I'm fine with my own family handling her (no children). Rant over. Any advice?
