so my mother in law said she's buying her and my father in law a carseat so they can come and take my almost 2 year old OR the new baby for a while when I become "overwhelmed" or "too tired". My own mother has already made comments in regards to how she knows she's going to have them alot because I'm going to be too "overwhelmed". My husband made a comment today that he was surprised when he walked in the door because my hair was down and I had a little make up on (from going to my son's school) and said I didn't look miserable for once since being pregnant. I'm ready to scream at everyone at this point. I'm not miserable, in pain yes and uncomfortable, but I am a stay at home mom and I am more than happy being home with my toddler all day, he deserves to have his mommy all the time and I repeat I AM NOT MISERABLE. In regards to my mom and in laws thinking they are going to be the judge of when they take my children, their horribly mistaken. I planned this baby knowing I would have a two year old as well as a preteen and husband that works ALL the time. I didn't put into my plan someone coming and just taking my kids when they think I can't handle it. I am a mother and I can do anything and everything my kids need at all times. I'm getting real tired of people doubting me, I believe in myself and I am more than ready for the job of having three kids. I knew how many I had before I got pregnant and I can add 2+1. I'm an exceptionally good mother and I do not like other people keeping my children. Visiting for dinners whatever is one thing but reality is going to set in real soon when people realize I'm overwhelmed with stress when OTHER people have my children and I'm not in control....rant over but I'm still pissed

Yes I hate when people assume you don't know how to handle your kids my son will be turning 2 shortly after my daughter is born an everyone's like its gonna be a big change for you an you'll have your hands full. Like I know what I'm getting into I planned them to be close in age. My parents think Ima need them all the time an I don't. When I he my son my step mom was like he gonna mix his day an nights up an blah blah she was like I'll stay with you I was like no I think I can handle a baby an he was an perfect baby. I understand what your saying!

@mommmyyof2, ugh yes! I had my first son in hs and waited til we had graduated and got our lives together (10 freakin years later) before I had another one bcuz of all the things our families said. so after I had my son 2 years ago I decided then that I wanted two close together so they could go to school and grow up together. our family keeps saying things like "well you keep popping out babies" and "you don't know what you've gotten into" and "IS THIS THE LAST ONE FOR SURE?!". I'm getting so sick of it... I'm going to get pissed to the point they will ask for them and I'm just going to say no bcuz of all the crap they've talked...

That's definitely irritating (to put it lightly)... But, don't let anyone knock you off your block (meaning, don't let anyone have that type of power over you to where they affect your mood)... Nobody will ever know your babies (or what they want/need) the way you do! They can say whatever they wanna say! Tell them you don't want the negative comments.
