Am I overreacting? *Need to rant*

Thanks ladies. Very interesting replies which gave me a lot of different insight into the situation. To answer my own question, YES I was overreacting... it had more to do with being up since 3:30, being hormonal and missing DH in desperate times. In hindsight, the incident should not even be a blip on my radar and I can totally understand as to how my reaction was over exaggerated.... The only drawback was that my DS was wide awake after the snack and didn't sleep at all which left me seriously sleep deprived :( To all the ladies who suggested I handle things myself if I have a preference of how it should be done, I agree whole heartedly. I much prefer to do things on my own with DS especially if I am particular about something. Only in this case, DS was not getting comforted by me as he wanted the breast (we are in the process of weaning), and asked for his grandmother in his father's absence, so I had no choice :(. Mrsb, JoyceB, thanks for understanding. Yes, my MIL is staying permanently with us and we have had our differences in the past. Now, we have reached a stage where if I want something done in a particular way, I do it myself. I am glad when I get help and don't expect much for how it is done... still pretty much work in progress though. Irooni, Daza, your posts are wonderful, I always try and keep it in mind that how nice it is for my DS to be looked after by family. It gives a very different perspective to the whole situation.... my MIL is wonderful with my son, and I can never be grateful enough for that. Unfortunately, we do have serious boundary issues, partly due to MIL's personality, and partly due to DH. My MIL likes to be involved in everything, from our house maintenance to the schools I would be putting DS in.... something I am not a big fan of. Again, thanks to all the ladies who posted with their views, it is good to get different opinions on subject. dolleymadison , your response was totally out of line - are you preggers too? lolz.
