And do you see her without your DH/DP being there?
I have never really got on with my MIL, DH and I have been together for 9 years and its always been like this. We dont argue or anything but we dont really get on - we are just such different people.
Anyway, DH is working alot of hours now, and his only time off in Sunday. MIL wants to see the children once a week, and I suggested that he take DS1 and DD over on Sunday. His response was 'Sunday is my only day off', which makes me think he isnt that bothered. She wants to come over in the week, which makes me feel uncomfortable in my own home, as we dont really speak. I know I could try harder, but I feel its too late for that, lots of water under the bridge etc.
Another issue I have is that if it was up to her she would come over on a Thursday morning, (she has done this in the past), but that means she wont see DS1, who is 8 and at school. This doesnt seem to bother her, but it really pisses me off.
I know that I am not being very flexible, and TBH I wouldnt mind if she came every other week or so, but I really resent having to play host to her every week for 2-3 hours when my DH wont get of his bum and do anything about it.
