So I woke up to a phone call from my mother crying in my ear. I asked what was wrong and she said that my grandmother is getting ready to call DFS on me. Apparantely my Grandma thinks my youngest DD is going to die. She feels like I am not pushing the subject of her colic and weight gain on her doctor. I don't know what else she wants me to do. we go in every two weeks to get her weight checked, she is on baby zantac for her reflux, they changed her formula to Nutramigen for colic. She is gaining weight at a good pace. There is nothing else wrong with her!! I am so hurt and heartbroken right now. She also went off about how my 3yo DD isn't potty trained, blah blah blah I could go on.
I just don't know what to do. I am so dumbfounded. I just talked to her last night and she was telling me how proud of me she is, and that I am doing such a good job raising the girls. I just don't know what to do. I am not worried about them coming to my house, I have nothing to hide. i just don't understand. We have allways been so close. this just breaks my heart. I have to stop now befor I ruin my keyboard.
thanks for listening. And letting me vent.
Quoting ErikaM27:
I would confront my grandma about it. I think that if you're doing everything possible to take care of your girls she shouldn't be trying to do that.
I would, but she is not taking calls from anyone right now. She is making my Uncle be the middle man. I honestly think she is going off the deep end. I just don't get it. :(
OMG I'm so sorry that happened to you. You must have felt like you are doing nothing right. I dont know you but I'm sure you r a GREAT mom. You feed you child clothe her bathe her give her plenty of love and I'm sure she is happy. It mothers out here that dont give a dime about their kids and terrible things happen to them like what happened to that 5yr old girl in NC who was raped and murdered by her mother boyfriend because her mother sold her in to prostitution.
My parents do and say stuff but i just kno what i'm doing is my best and that good enough for me and my babies.
Keep up good job.

Is there any chance that your mother could have misunderstood? I'm so sorry no matter what the case may be. Hang in there momma.
Yeah. I am sure that is what she said. My Uncle called and confirmed my fears. He is at a loss for words too. What a great time for her to do this too. :( Happy Thanksgiving to me.
