This might sound strange but whenever we visit dp's parents Ds (nearly 2) doesn't seem to acknowledge I exist - its the same if they come to us. He's not quite as bad with dp. I wouldn't feel so bad if i was at home with him all day but i work four days and sometimes if dp takes him to his parents on his day off with our son I will go straight there from work and again he seems indifferent to seeing me. I am pleased that he has such a good relationship with his grandparents in most ways and I know its probably because the time they spend with him is all playing and its not as often as the time he has with us but I am beginning to feel quite upset about it. I generally get on well with dp's parents but some of their ideas are different to ours and I kind of feel that if ds pushes me out it's harder to challenge things they might do differently. Has anyone had a similar experience or am I just being selfish?
