Stand ground Alicia.... Set the tone for what you believe are their boundaries as grandparents.

Re: Big blowup in family over me expressing breast milk and not exclusively breastfeeding...
Your FIL sounds like a manipulative, power tripping c*cksucker. Seriously, DH calls and tells him how upset you are and he says the first thign he's goign to do is ask you about it? I wouldn't throw around " If you want to see your granddaughter " threats lightly, but this would really tempt me to say just that.

I am so angry for you right now and wish I could tell him off myself. I would tell him when he grows breasts, he is more than welcome to try breast-feeding himself. Until then, keep his comments to himself

Re: Big blowup in family over me expressing breast milk and not exclusively breastfeeding...
I think its disgusting that ANYONE would act that way.
First off, who is he to care how/what/when you do it??
And I'm sorry, I can't stand that people push breastfeeding on others. Its not always best, it doesn't always work for everyone and some of us are perfectly happy healthy moms with happy healthy kids who are fomula fed (but that is another discussion).
I get really upset hearing this...since when is it anyone else's place to tell a new mom how to feed her child?? Good for you for pumping and even doing that! I give you lots of credit :)

Re: Big blowup in family over me expressing breast milk and not exclusively breastfeeding...
UMMM Its not any of their business! What if you didn't want to breastfeed?
Like for myself I don't ever see my self wanting to breastfeed.
I think it's awesome that people can do it.... and I applaud them no matter how they do it.
