Tonight I let my 13 month old son CIO because he cannot for the life of him fall asleep without being rocked. I was rocking him for hours at night and getting frustrated so I cut down one nap which resulted in a super cranky baby with constant tantrums. Anyway he fell asleep within 30mins and I went downstairs for something and she asked why I did that to my son. Why did I make him suffer for my "mistakes" (rocking him) I told her she was the one who started rocking him and made me feel like an idiot when I was trying to put him down at a certain time when he was a lot smaller and able to put himself to sleep. She even blamed my mom because I told her a long time ago my mom suggested co-sleeping when he was a newborn. Obviously I got upset because my mom has nothing to do with this. So I told DH what happened and he went and talked to them. I don't know what he said exactly but it started an argument with them he ended up telling her to mind her own business. I'm dreading seeing her tomorrow morning because unfortunately I live with my inlaws for now. I have no idea what to say to her or if I should just ignore her. I feel like she really made me feel like a bad parent so I don't really want anything to do with her.
