Hi all, I'm new to mumsnet and posting threads but was desperate for some advice.
I am currently in the process of moving house with a 3 year old and a 9 week old. Our new house needs complete gutting.. It's something out of a horror movie. My DH is adamant that we go stay at his parents house whilst our new house is complete. It is probably more convenient to stay there as it's close to his work and to our new home. My mother in law is very controlling and has no filter, she says what's on her mind (the usual MIL digs) she gets right under my skin. She tries to undermine everything I do with my kids and thinks she knows best. I just can't imagine staying at home all day from 6am- 7pm with her whilst my husband goes to work. I would rather go stay at my mums house which is 20 miles away. Her house is a lot smaller and this means myself and the kids would have to be away from my DH whilst he goes to work.
I don't wan't my family to be apart but I don't want to be miserable everyday for 4-5 weeks, maybe even longer. I've said to my husband thy I want to stay at my mums but it's like going in one ear and out of the other. Am I being unreasonable to not want to stay at my in- laws ? Should I put my foot down? I don't want to create drama within the family.
Thanks for the help
