Im finding it so hard being a Step Grandmother. I don’t have any children if my own but do have a stepson who now has a gorgeous 10 month old baby girl. It goes without saying that the Grandmother on baby’s Mum’s side sees baby and has her to stay overnight etc and I get that as the Mum’s mum that is to be expected. What I find very hard is my husbansds ex wife who lives only a mile away and her husband get to see baby so much have her to stay over and are now looking after her 3 days a week. For Covid reasons I understand this part. What hurts me most is that pre Covid we were never asked to babysit or to have a sleep over. Even though once it was discovered that a baby was on the way I was one of first people to be asked to do childcare. From my own point of view I could accept this easier if I did not feel my hubby is missing out so much. He loves this little girl so much but has to stand back and lets his ex-wife’s husband play the the role of granddad. I’m finding this all very upsetting and my husband says he does not mind but I know deep down he does and only says this because he knows I am upset. Are there any other Step Grandmothers out there in a similar situation to me I might pass on some advice please..?
