In laws rant!

In laws got into town Monday night to “help” with my son in my last few days.

Day #1 They came over and kept him from his nap even though I mentioned 3 times I was going to get him down at noon, they show up at 11:30. We had been at the bike park for 3 hours and he was tired & getting crabby. Then they came back for dinner and had him up 2 hrs past bed time.

Day #2 MIL came to my last Dr apt. I asked if I could just drop him at their place while I went, it’s a 30 min drive into Vail. She wanted to be there ‘Incase something went down’ What? I go into labor and she has to drive my car back to Eagle? She had a hard time with him in the waiting room for 20 min, then sat in the car while I took him to the park afterward. It was really more work having her with us.

Day #3 MIL offered to take him to story time and meet his friends at the park like we do every week! Called 20 min before hand and thinks she has altitude sickness (because she doesn’t like to drink water, but still has 4/5 beers at dinner) you need to drink water when going from 14ft to 6,500ft , we’ve lived here for 8 years! It’s not their first visit.

Cherry on top, husband just called to say they are coming over for dinner again tonight. Second time in three nights. Meaning I am cooking for 7 people, again.

🤦🏼‍♀️ so much for getting some extra help. Only 4 days until my due date and I am just all around uncomfortable and frustrated.

Oh goodness! Stay strong mama! I know how frustrating in laws can be. Mine stopped listening to a word I’d say then made up all these fake rules that I had that made me look like a psycho.

So over this feeling! Ever since I've had ds, OH and I have fought my mother on not wanting to give ds a dummy just cause we don't like them and find he self soothes. For the past three times my mother has had him, she has gone against our rule and given him a dummy and of course I spoke to her about it (that's all my knowledge on how many times she's done it). On Sunday we celebrated my stepfathers birthday and due to OH working I had to do it alone which isn't the thing that bothered me. The thing that bothered me was no matter what I said regarding ds I wasn't listened to. I told my mother to sit behind ds if she was going to sit him up on the floor as he hasn't got the whole balance thing down pact but she didn't and then ds falls and starts crying cause he hurt himself, I picked him up and my mother just came and took him off me! I told her he can't forward face yet as he is below the shoulder line in order to forward face but they did anyway. I get it's her first grandchild and she's excited but I never got to share the news about ds's first tooth or his first attempt at crawling to the family because she already done it. Yes I know, I probably sound petty asf! I had to repeatedly ask my mother to take me and ds home as he was tired and close to the over tired stage. On the way home ds fell asleep, luckily I was sitting beside him and looked at him cause he had fallen asleep and had his head facing down so I quickly grabbed his head and held it up till we got home.
