Isn't it funny how....
... your perspective changes when you have a baby. I've just come back from a trip to visit the in-laws in Ireland. While we were there they threw a big party to welcome the LO with all the Aunts and Uncles etc. Anyway one of Eric's Aunts was there, she's a bit of an alcoholic and can be rather loud and in your face. I've always got on well with her and felt a bit sorry for her as she is always a bit left out and picked on by the rest of the family. Well at one point I came back from the loo and saw the Aunt holding Aoife, she wasn't doing anything but had been drinking steadily all evening, I suddenly paniced and had to get Eric to go and get Aoife back off her! I didn't get her as I felt like snatching her back! It's funny because she's actually really good with kids but when it was mine I just couldn't bare it!
Has this kind of thing happened to any of you? Have you changed the way you do things or react now you have a LO?
