Am so pissed off,

TotorosOcarina · 23/04/2011 14:21

am not putting this in AIBU because I really don't care if I am BU, its how I feel and I'm pissed off.

Am due DC4 in a week. Its saturday so all 3 DC are here, (3 under 6) the middle one (2) is ill, she is full of a cold and so whiney.

DS2 is being a PITA.

and MIL has rang and asked DH to help her lay a floor.

And hes gone.

I'm fucked off becsue she has another son who she NEVER asks anything of, he will be sat at home on his lazy arse. HIS gf isn't pregnant, they have just 2 kids and they live with her parents so have a house full of people that look after the 2 kids anyways.

But does she ask him?? NO, its always my DH and I'm sick to death of it.

Am hot and tired and keep crying cause I'm a daft sod and just wanted to have a sleep. Now I'm trying to entertain all 3 of them and put 'Narnia 2' on and MIL had the cheek to call us telly addicts!!! we've been out in the sun at the fields/park / garden all day everyday for a week FFS :(

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Set a reminder

Your dh needs to grow some and put you and kids first. MIL has every right to ask him but he should have said no - I would be furious with him.

Deep breaths x

Well, 'phone your dh and tell him you think labour has started. Then when he gets home "oops, false alarm, but now you're here I'm off for nap while you have the kids...."

Poor you. Put the dvd on and enjoy a bit of peace and quiet if you can.

YesWhat · 23/04/2011 14:46

This isn't about MIL.

This is about your dh abandoning you when his mother clicks her fingers.

Agree with franke - tell him labour's starting and you need to go and lie down.

nickelbaalamb · 23/04/2011 14:48

Your DH shouldn't have agreed.
You're 1 week away from giving birth, he should be looking after you (or even looking after the kids so you get to have a proper nap or break or sit down.)

Your MIL is not being a , your DH is.
(sorry)

no, you're very close to having a baby.
your'e entitled to feel pissed off at unreasonable behavious.
especially as it's too hot for the time of year and in theory, you shouldn't have had to put up with the heat. :(

Jill72 · 23/04/2011 15:38

Both of them are out of order!!!! Call a taxi - put the kids in and send them round to 'help out' Easter surprise!!!!

growing3rdbump · 23/04/2011 15:54

I was pissed off the other day when MIL turned up out of the blue with her sister in tow. They both made comments on how big I am and then MIL sat in the only chair in the conservatory while I had to stand and watch the kids playing outside...! She also announced they'd been out for lunch, which left me wondering why she left it until then to tell me she had the day off work and why she hadn't thought it would be a nice idea to offer to help me out for the day with the kids I've had at home all Easter holiday...!!! DH didn't understand why I was cross, but I was!!!!
