Baby unhappy with grandparents

I have the same. Luckily my parents understand and know not to push it but unfortunately my mother in law isn’t very good at reading the situation and pushes a bit much with needing to hold our little boy even when he has shown he is unsettled with her. To be honest has caused me slight separation anxiety as my MIL likes to walk away with our baby eye holding him which makes it 10 times worse.
We are now trying small steps and making sure we are always in view when he is being held by others so he doesn’t worry and still feels safe.
It is hard as don’t want to freak them but also want them to be happy to be held by others x

My baby is nearly 16 weeks and is the same. She has been like that from birth. We go to mum and baby groups and socialise. She see’s one grandparent at least a few times a week but still will scream the house down if held by anyone but me.
I’ve got no advice but I’m just trying to accept this is her temperament at the moment. I do still let people hold her and let them try sooth her but if she continues to be upset I take her back. I just try let grandparents sit close to her and try interact with her when I’m holding her if that’s the way she feels safe. 😊

In exactly the same position, my mum is the only one who can calm her down in the end but she was always cry when one of her grandparents hold her and it’s only started in the last few weeks.
I’ve been playing with her and making her smile then showing her to her grandparents and just getting her to interact with them that way.
My partners mother does that too, walking away with a crying baby and it gives me so much anxiety! Sometimes I will say ‘she’s tired’ or ‘she’s hungry’ hoping for the baby back and she will walk away and say things like ‘you’re not hungry are you baby!’ 🥲 so frustrating!

What is it with MIL 😫😂. Why would you walk away from the babies mother when it’s screaming clearly but happy and wants to go back. It’s their stubbiness that they think they know best. So frustrating and annoying

I’m really glad I’m not the only one. The in laws feel they have a better chance if I’m not in the room and I guess sometimes she seems slightly better. But when she starts crying and I can hear it from the other room knowing they want to try and settle her themselves so can’t go in, it’s so so hard

same for me and she used to have a really good bond with my mum 🥺 my mum cried when she came round yesterday because my little one just screamed as soon as she looked at her! she’s like this with all family members - it makes me (and them) soo upset 😅 would love someone to have some tips/advice/reassurance

that’s really hard not sure I would be able to sit next door and hear

I don’t have any advice, I came here to say that my little girl is exactly the same 😩 if anyone does have any advice, please tag me 😂

Literally going through the exact same thing even tho we are out a few times a week at classes seeing people. My health visitor is calling today so I will mention it but I think it's just a phase. They are fresh out of newborn stage and just noticing the world and it's all a bit much x
