So I'll try to keep this brief. Recently found out I'm pregnant with baby no 4 and was at first scared to tell hubby, as he did not want any more children. I have told him now and even though we are both still shocked ( I have been on the pill for the last 15 months so didn't expect this), we are happy but both of us agree this is going to be stretch for us financially as hubby is the only one of us working. So, mil lives in another country and called DH earlier to say she is coming for a visit and also bringing DH's 11 year old niece. Not a problem we haven't seen them for over 2 years and it would be nice for them to see the kids in person and not just on Skype. An hour later fil calls and says to hubby make sure you look after your mum and niece while they are at yours, as in financially. They are paying for the plane tickets, but they want us to pay for everything else while they're here. Aibu to be really upset and angry with hubby for just agreeing to this without even discussing it with me, especially as money is very tight right now and we have baby no 4 on the way? So his niece really wants to visit Legoland, go into London, do all the sightseeing. His mum wants to visit Scotland ffs! All at our cost! I actually think my DH has lost his mind to just blindly agree to all of this. Not to mention all the food and shopping we will need as they are staying for 2 weeks. This comes after DH and I had an argument a few months ago after fil called and asked for £500 as he felt like going on a cruise. We are not in any major debt at the moment but both of us do have a little on our credit cards. We certainly can't afford a holiday for someone else when we haven't even been on one ourselves for the last few years
