Hello everyone I am new here and I hope some of you can help.
The problem is my son and DiL are having their first baby soon. It has been agreed the my DiL mother will look after the baby for two days a week as they are very,very close. Then my son asked me if I would do another day. I refused, but to give you the bigger picture I have been fighting cancer for the last 5 years and finally starting to get my life back and I told him I don't want to commit to a regular thing but as far as babysitting goes then the door is always open.
I am worried now that I will be shut out. I always knew I wouldn't see the baby as often as I liked because DiL and her mother are so close, they live yards away from each other and she is a constant presence in my son's house.
Am I being selfish?
