to lock the door and hide?

[ziva]

im 34 weeks pregnant and am just out of hospital after my blood pressure went up,protein in the wee etc etc.
anyhoo's PIL are due to come up today sometime but im just not in the mood for them.DH is in work.they wouldnt be the 'helping out' sort iyswim.

aibu to just ignore the door,take the kids outside the back and rest?or am i just a mean bitch?

You should be resting, in bed, if you have just come out of hospital with those symptoms. Otherwise you are going to be back in again.

How old are your dc? Really, if PIL are coming, it should be to take care of DC so you can rest - in bed.

ive an 8,5 and 1 yr old.DH had to go in today for meetings etc.
ah no they wouldnt look after them tbh.they would feed them up on sweets so when they leave im left with 2 hyper kids and a wired whingy baby.

Just tell them you are too unwell to have visitors.

Is there anyone else that can help with the dc.

My PIL used to be like this - it was worse than having 2 extra toddlers to look after, so I do sympathise.

hide.my pil ruined my homecoming with our dd 6wks ago,i had a section they stayed late,demanded food and did nothing to help,they left at 10.30 leaving their mess for us to clear up. i will never see them in the same light again,such a shame.

phone them and say dont come, how hard is that

ive tried ringing but their phone is plugged out (dont ask lol).
ledkr my PIL did the same thing hun,its so inconsiderate.

tbh the kids are grand,the older ones are playing together and the 1yr old isnt demanding at all.

Put on your grottiest PJ's, mess up you hair etc and, when they arrive, take ages to answer the door and tell them you think you are coming down with something and could they look after the children while you have a sleep?

Then see how long before they remember a prior engagement ...

Or just disable the doorbell and hide!

Easier said than done. I'd probably end up inviting them in and smiling behind gritted teeth.

OMG! Being discharged with that history means that the hospital thinks that you are going to take it easy, they wouldn't let you home otherwise.

I hate a fight, so I would phone dh, and tell him that you won't be answering the door to the PIL.

Then take to the sofa and don't move (unless its to open a box of choccies).

You poor thing.

How are you feeling? Are you on meds for the BP?
