So mommies what do you do when you have in laws that smoke? Idk how to discuss this with my husband I'm so scared to have my baby come visit especially when 3 people in one household smokes. I was told in my prenatal course to not even allow the baby around people that have smoke in their clothing so idk how to handle this situation. Anyone been in a similar position
They were but I don't care. You may have tried to kill your child while he grew up but I'm damn well going to protect mine. They were more than welcome to shower and come over to our house to see the baby. They way I look at it is if the child means that much to you, it won't matter what you have to do to see them. And if you chose not to, that's your prerogative and your demons to deal with. My husband was frustrated with it for awhile but my family jumps through any and all hoops. So I told him his could too. It's not asking a lot.... I also went crazy and made people provide proof of the whooping cough before coming to see my child too.
lay down the law. tell them not to smoke before seeing the baby cause the baby can still get secondhand smoke from their clothes. your child your rules
@dcb012, were the offended? I already don't visit as much as I should because I cannot stand smoke smell even before I was pregnabtv
@cubanese, but it's my husband family so I can't just ignore them because it will be their grandchild
I don't allow my daughter to their house if they smoke inside. If they go outside they must change clothes or coat and wash their hands before touching her. When she was just born they couldn't hold her if they had smoked period. My husband has asthma and his mom and whole family still smoke like chimneys.... Dumbasses...
I find it pretty hilarious how people who have shown their true colors on social media snake away, delete the posts that outed them and come back on social media like nothing happened. Why do that, you outed yourself, so stay out. We still see you boo boo...
So idk if I’m an asshole for thinking this but a girl I used to go to school with is having her 3rd kid and she’s planning a baby shower and she had one with her other two. I feel like a baby shower is something you do with ur first pregnancy. I live far from my family so I didn’t have one but i did have a baby registry and I’m not even doing that with this pregnancy. Idk I just feel like 3 baby showers is a lot! Especially when she gets things handed to her. Idk maybe I’m an ass for thinking that
Locking your doors
We are having a discussion on one of my birth boards from my older kids about locking doors and security alarms. There are many of us (me included) who do not lock our doors at home (I actually don't even have a deadbolt on my house and we don't lock it when we leave either), and others who think that's totally weird. So what do you do? Do you lock your doors? Do you think it's weird that people don't?
how many children
Do you have?
Yes I have been in the same exact situation. I wouldn't allow my son at my in laws house because they refused to wash their hands or change their clothes. The baby's doctor told me that the smoke can cause pneumonia.
