I am a mother of a 10month old baby. we live in a joint family with in laws n brother in law. post delivery after returning from my mother's house my son was very much attached to me n this is something my in laws couldn't see. so my FIL once had told my MIL that we need to keep mother n son away. that sentence did hurt me n when I told about it to my husband he said that his father had told so that I could get down free time n break if he (my son) is with in laws. but since that day onwards they would always compete with me. Full day I'm doing chores for my son playing with him,take him out etc my Mil n Fil only take care 9f him for an hour or 2 n during that time also I'm around... apart from this no help..
it's very special for a mother when the baby first starts to say mama but I feel I'm unlucky coz my FIL continuously keeps teaching him Dada n my son has started saying it. whenever he says Dada my Fil taunts me saying see for him his Dada is first.
this hurts me alot. is it that my bond with son is not good that he doesn't say mama??? am I lacking in something..???

Anon Trust me at times elders stoop low and do such things, don't know if it's ego or something else but have heard lot of these. But remember this he is your baby and nothing can change it, he is just 10 months and all this baby language doesn't count at all. Only by 14 or 15 months they will call names. Dont worry.

Dear I will rest show you that regardless whatever is happening with you right now the scenario is going to change when your baby is 2 years old mark my words a baby who is a newborn understand his mother's touch understand his mother's smell so you cannot be separated till eternity a mother and a baby bond cannot be broken do not worry about that make sure whatever time you are spending it should be quality time focus on activities look on Pinterest for ideas how to engage your toddler because from age 1 month till 5 years the brain development is very crucial so make the most of this time because it is not going to come again it doesn't matter whether your baby start speaking Dada first or your baby start speaking mama first it is alright he knows whom to look when he is in trouble so that is more important and we as a parents must feel fortunate enough that we are capable of taking the decisions till our babies r small so it is ok also you must feel good good that you have an extended family you can make the most use out of your f i l m i l relationships by letting them take charge for one or two hours and not taking it on your heart because it doesn't matter what they say for you what only matters is what they are doing for your baby so if there are entertaining your baby if they are taking care of him even for one or two hours or if they are spending a quality time with him are able to help him satisfy his curiosity and show him the happy face then it is a good family for your baby do not worry
