My mother in law is getting upset that baby girl, who is almost 3 months, doesn’t look at her when she calls her name. She proceeded to yanked at the binky which causes baby to shake lightly and cry.
Mind you baby was half asleep as we had a long car ride over a hour.
I told her to try not to do that and she was upset as she just wants the baby to know she’s there.

Respectfully your MIL will be ok. Continue to be mama bear. Nobodyyyyyy loves your child more than you.

She sounds like she needs to get over herself. Babies don't respond to their name at 3 months. That is a 5 or 6 month milestone although some babies can do it earlier. If necessary set boundaries because that sounds crazy to me. I understand her wanting the baby to know she is there but, that was unnecessary.

That was very rude of her. I'd have a talk with her
