My parents have never made a comment about our parenting, but I do things pretty similar to how my mom raised me. My MIL on the other hand.... She has made a lot of really ignorant comments about breastfeeding. She came to stay with us right after Claire was born and really stressed me out. Any time Claire cried she would say "well she's probably hungry. I'm sure your milk isn't rich enough". She also asked me about a dozen times when they were going to test my milk to make sure it was rich enough like that's some common thing that they do to all breastfeeding women. Apparently her friend's daughter was breastfeeding and was told her milk wasn't rich enough and her baby would have to have formula. I really think MIL got her facts wrong in this story because I've never heard of that before. She's coming back for 10 days in May.... God help me...
