So my mil is driving me nuts!
How am I supposed to bring my baby over to her house once she's born and feel comfortable doing so when her house is very dirty?. She lets the dogs (German shepherd & yellow lab) all over the furniture, never bathes them, she doesn't vacuum so there's piles of dog hair and food all over the floor, There's dishes piled up and the counters are continuously covered in shit and countless cans all over the place! And on top of it she's still smoking in the house and pretends she's not when ever I'm not around. I told her I will not allow my baby to be in her house if she continues to smoke in it.. I can clearly see cigarettes in the ash try in the bathroom.... And on top of it under her nails are always imbedded with nasty crap underneath them. I feel bad even saying all of this let alone having to even deal with this all. It's not hard to clean! Tell me I'm not over reacting please lol
@misscrystal, no problem...idk why we make ourselves feel guilty for doing what's best for our kiddos but I feel your pain! Lol
Our situation is like the same! I lived with his mom in that smoke for 5 years yucky!! Well thanks I feel better getting this off my chest. @queenmother
@misscrystal, I'm going through almost the exact same thing! We moved back to our home time and moved in with my parents until our house is ready. His parents were upset because we didn't move in with them which would have made more sense but I refuse to be around that smoke. I've done it for 4 years even though it makes me physically ill but once I found out I was pregnant my sympathy for hurting their feelings went out the window have to think about mine and the babies health first.
@queenmother, my mil does the same thing! But she sprays fa breeze in the air and never has windows open.😡
It makes me feel awful! And I feel even worse having to discuss it with my boyfriend, I can tell it hurts his feelings. We're also living with my parents until there's a house available for us to move in, I know his mom is pretty jealous and upset that were not living with her and were having a home birth any day now and I think she feels excluded... But I'm comfortable at my parents, the house is spotless and I get help while my bf is at work. I don't want to sound like a controlling bitch and tell her to change her clothes & wash her hands and under her nails... But damn! I guess I'm gonna have to. I pre warned her I'm going to be Hitler with cleanliness and she was pretty upset. She should understand she's a mother and "used" to keep her house clean... She should do the same for her granddaughter.😔
My MIL and FIL will have to come to our apartment to see baby because they smoke in the house. They also try and pretend like they don't anymore but we will walk in the door and they are snuffing out cigs and hiding ash trays and waving frantically at the air lol.
You are so not in the wrong momma!! Some of my husbands brothers smoke and I'm really iffy on my baby being around them because they never wash their hands and they smoke so much I can smell them from across the room!! It's disgusting.
I don't blame you. If she wants to see baby she can come visit you. Also set a rule that she needs to have clean clothes that haven't had smoke around them that she can change into before she holds baby, and of course, everybody must wash their hands before touching or holding baby!!
@misscrystal, not at all... I am going to be super protective when baby is born, Germs are everywhere literally... If someone is not hygienic regardless of who they are family or not but sorry... Wash your hands and clean up otherwise it's a no go. It's our children and we are responsible for taking care of them and babies can get sick really easily. That needs to be explained to her, If she still doesn't change her ways then you have no other choice... Sad but true.
Do I really have to tell a grown ass woman to clean her house? Lol gahh! Pisses me off.
I don't think you're overreacting, I'd feel the same way lol. It's how I feel about taking my daughter to my boyfriends house cause she curses a lot and I don't want my baby around that. Plus seeing how she treats my boyfriend, I know she would be the same way with our daughter..
So fucking pissed. My niece drew all over my daughters wall in her playroom. I tell my sister about it and she had the nerve to fucking laugh. If that were my daughter and she did that to her house I'd be paying for new painted walls!! then had the nerve to say "she's only two". (She's allowed to do that at their house) well here she got her ass busted and put in time out until her mother gets here. Now I have to figure out how get this crayon off the damn walls with out them being ruined. fml...

is it wrong to be frustrated that my daughter acts like she can't do certain things with out my help. she plays dumb a lot and I wish I could be like no girl show what you know. she acts like she can't trace or match shapes so shes ask for "mommy finger" to help her so I barely hold her hand and she magically can do it but if I dont hold her hand she just scribbles and acts like she doesnt know
the pic is how she traces when I'm "helping her" otherwise it'll just be scribbles all over the page
😒😡Horrible morning, ok lord knows I can't hold my bladder so I race to the bathroom and my dog has a bad habit of following me so as I try to get to the bathroom I'm trying my best not to step on her however I almost trip and fall. Before I knew it I started peeing all over myself and all over MY DOG!!!!!!!!! So she started licking the pee off of my leg. There's no way dogs are this naive 😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡#disgusted #donewithpregnancy #idontfeellikealady #dontjudgeme
Absolutely not over reacting! She should have that place spotless for that baby!
