<<Anyone else have issues with respect from their  daughters?

I am having such an issue with my daughter understanding  that what I am 
teaching and helping her with is because her son is NOT eating  properly, high 
bili, no weight gain>>
 
Pam, I really resonate with that as my dd had major problems with both her  
children.  It wasn't my dd that was frustrating me, it was her (now  
ex-)husband who didn't want the frenulum clipped as much as it should be, didn't  
want to use any method of supplementation other than the bottle, insisted on 
 pacifiers, and so on and so on.  Jill didn't have enough milk -- we did  
everything on her end of things to no avail (including Reglan and Domperidone 
 and a Classic pump), but I spent much time not wanting to be the IBCLC, 
just  wanting to be the Grammie.  Same thing with second baby, only much worse 
 from the (now X) husband.  Trying to help with daggers coming from his 
eyes  was not conducive to help.  So I washed a lot of bottles and cried in the 
 dishwater.
 
My advice, though it is painful to give -- back off, don't say anything  
unless they ask for advice, keep sending them back to the peds so that HE/SHE  
tells them what to do, and just love on them and the baby as much as you  
can.  You don't want this to come between you in the future.
