So my boyfriends family wants to come and stay with us this upcoming Saturday until the baby gets here . There are 5 of them and me and my boyfriend live in a 2 bedroom apartment, am I wrong for not wanting them to come early ? I just don't see why they can't wait until I start having contractions/ wait for labor to come. My due date isn't even until the 27th . I just don't want to be uncomfortable in my own home . I feel stuck in a lose-lose situation. 😣
My boyfriend did it, but I talked to his mom too to make sure everything was okay, and she completely understood where I was coming from . @phasion
Lol, yeah they got the hint and thank the lord they're gonna get a hotel ! 🙏🏽👐🏽🙌🏽 @phasion
@asiaappleton Noooooo way you need to tell him that this time especially this time you need as much space and be comfortable and 5 people? come on thats so inconsiderate to you though why they all cant pitch in for a double bed at a hotel. I think they should wait after the baby is born at least 2weeks to a month after. Then 5 people i hope it's a 2/2 because i will be mad if they have to share a bathroom to girl no tell him and tell him now lol
I totally get you. Men don't really repeat the message how we expect, they make it sound a lot worse lol. My MIL is super duper sensitive & everyone walks on eggshells around her to avoid confrontation. Me, she never saw me coming lol!!! I don't let anyone tell me what to do, especially not in my home. Sorry not sorry. We get into a lot of arguments regarding religion. I'm Catholic, my husband's Lutheran... when it comes down to it, we're both Christians. From day one she has tried to push religion on me & that's not how I roll. I'm religious but I don't go preaching to everyone like she does. I respect others but she wants everyone to think like her. So my issue when they come is that she ALWAYS brings that up & it never fails. You definitely need your peace, girl! Especially to enjoy your baby along with your man. 😊
They will all get over it, especially your SO once he sees how hard labor is, it's not EASY!
It's nice to know that this feeling is clearly normal, i feel better about it and I don't feel the need to apologize for it ! I just know he prolly made me seem like a b*tch and that they are unwelcome here . Oh well . @coraanne @emc229
and I would tell my boyfriend , coming to visit is something different but staying is a no go. Get a motel room shit. That is suppose to be time when you and your boyfriend bond with y'all new blessing. Not stressed out. He should understand where u r coming from. and even if he don't then so be it. That's your house just as well as his. and you have a say so. I wouldn't allow it.
Exactly, And it's like no one seems to understand that, especially my boyfriend . He's acting like I have something against his family when I don't, I love them and they're great people . But I feel stressed out just thinking about being in here with all of them let alone it actually happening . I know for a fact they would be staying with us and I just can't handle it ! I guess you have to be pregnant or have been pregnant to understand the frustration because my boyfriend sure doesn't ! @karnawest @mickbaby @katyaoct15 @preggiemommyincorona @queenquee
Nothing wrong with that! When my in law's travel they usually stay with us but this time I said no... and I have a house! I just don't want to be uncomfortable especially not during that time. I don't want commotion, I need peace. My mom will come stay with me after I give birth because I need to get a LEEP procedure. She lives about 20 mins away so she can go back home as soon as I'm ok lol. My husband can only take 2 days off from work but at least I know if I need the help then my mom will be there.
Who cares if they're offended, this is your time to prepare yourself physically and mentally before baby is here. They'll get over it once they see baby. And your SO should understand that and should have said no to them right off.
that's your house, you are too close to delivering your baby, and you need as much rest and quietness as possible. You have to prepare yourself for when labor do arrive. so no you are not wrong and I wouldn't let them come this early anyways.. and that's a lot of people for a 2 bedroom house/apartment..
I would say something to them I understand maybe your mom staying with you after you give birth but that is a lot of people to have in an apartment oh I know say it will be hard on the baby 😏
Are positive they all planning to stay at your place? Maybe they have plans to get a hotel or something...
That's a little much when you are so close to having the baby. It's your time to bond as parents!
@asiaappleton ok great !!!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
