Don't worry too much. Once there's more than 1 baby in the family, there's bound to be comparisons.
Your MIL is worried for her grandson, that's all. However, we may be frustrated n take their repeatedly-voiced out-concerns the wrong way.

Hi pangsn7376,
A friend of mine got pregnant even though she was breastfeeding.
Breastfeeding is not a method of contraception, even though it tends to delay menses.
I think you should continue breastfeeding and also use condoms (if u don't intend to get pregnant).
Hope this helps :)
