And while she was eating, she was still breastfeeding my baby, keeping him with only ONE HAND under the butt.īut the worst is, she was trying to get herself to be called "mama" by my newborn. She never went to the kitchen to get formula or to get some solid food for the baby, but only to cook for herself. My baby was latching to another woman's breast, after he refused mine. After I went away, she took my baby, sat on the sofa, and started BREASTFEEDING him. However, something was still troubling me, so the next day I hid a GoPro in my living room, and an old phone recording in the kitchen just to make sure.Īnd when I came back, and watched the recordings, everything started to make sense. I then thought it was my impression, even because the baby had never complained. So I confronted her about it, and asked her if she was using formula, and she confirmed. In 2 days it seemed like I was using way more formula than her in 5 days. However, after 2 months, at his eighth month, I started to feel like something wasn't adding up. Also, I decided to start weaning my child, and I asked her to introduce some solid foods too. So I decided to switch to the formula, and gave instructions to her like usual. Either way, I didn't think too much of it since he was still getting fed, until it became impossible for me to keep pumping because I wasn't producing enough milk no more. It was a very stressful period so it could have been. After talking with the babysitter (who was a mother before me) and doing some researches, I conclued that it could have been something related to the fact the he got more used to the biberon, or to the fact that I may had a different smell. But he accepted the biberon with my milk just fine. He started refusing my breasts altogether, refusing to latch on and after a while of me gently trying he would start to get annoyed. However, some strange things started happening during my newborns' sixth month. So she was following the indications I gave her. When I came home, she would summarize everything that happened/she did, and I always found everything in perfect order, plus used biberons. The first two months went absolutely great, with no issues whatsoever. I didn't gave her many rules to follow, other than a summary of everything that happened during my work shifts at home and that she isn't allowed on my bedroom.īefore going to work, I always made sure to leave all the necessary (like diapers, pacifier, his favorite plushie, etc) on the table, also leaving the milk I pumped in biberons inside the fridge which she was instructed to use. She was super nice and bonded with my child pretty easily, and since she seemed very skilled I was very serene. And fortunately enough in no time I found a fellow (32F) mom who agreed to come at my house to watch and take care of my newborn 5 days a week for 9 hours, from 8 am to 5 pm. I was able to get a 12 weeks unpaid maternity leave from work, and after that, since I live very far away from my family, and had no one who could help me, I started looking for a babysitter. I remained pregnant in a previous relationship with my ex, and decided to carry on the pregnancy since I was very excited to become a mom. I (28F) just found out that the babysitter was breastfeeding my son without my consent Originally posted by u/evening-butterfly-16 in r/TrueOffM圜hest on Jan 6, '23, updated Jan 26, '23.
