Pillow Phobia

We found out yesterday that Kaitlyn has pillow phobia!

She's trying to pop 2 to 4 molars (I can feel quite a number of them right under the gums), so she's been a cranky, clingy little girl for more than a week. She cries herself to sleep and everytime she wakes from a sleep cycle, she cries. So I haven't slept a full night for more than a week either.

Anyways, my father, once again, in his infinite wisdom decided, oh, let's introduce a pillow and a quilt for her, because she NEEDS them. Apparently he thinks it stunts her growth without a pillow and a quilt. It's the "unwrapping" saga all over again... (for those who doesn't know, check this blog out). After a week of him nagging non-stop, I gave her a pillow. Lo-and-behold... One night after sleeping with a pillow, Kaitlyn refuses to even go into her cot. Everytime I put her in her cot, she screams bloody murder, with real big drops of tears and everything. So we took out the pillow, and she's fine again. She definitely didn't like her pillow.

Moral of the story? I wish my parents will just butt out on how to raise MY daughter. They had their chance with their daughter, i.e. me. They may not like the way their daughter had turned out, but it's no reason to try to force their ways on how I should raise MY daughter. /shrug.

I need to get my Master Degree done, and pop the second baby out as soon as possible, so we could get out of their house...
