[quote=Anonymous]Just needed to vent. Inlaws are currently here because our kid was hospitalized and he's staying home for the rest of the calendar year. My mom was over for three weeks, and now both my mil and fil are over in our 1bed/1bath. I honestly feel like if they are here to help, then only one would show up, but they're both retired, and have planted themselves in our living room. My MIL wants to do everything. And it makes me feel like she either thinks I don't do things correctly or she still wants to take care of her son and now first grandson.

The night she came in she asked me if she could feed my baby pecan pie. She keeps saying how she feels bad that he enjoys eating green beans, and that the food I make him is too bland. Not that I want someone to show appreciate, but god, I make all of his food, and work full time, and pump, just say something encouraging.

She knocked on our bedroom door this morning because she heard our baby up and wanted to feed him oatmeal cereal. She constantly picks him up when I'm playing with him. I went out to get her groceries, and when I came back she showed me a video of my kid crawling for the first time. I went straight to the bathroom to cry. I know it's irrational to cry, but I constantly feel like she wants to one up me, and she finally got my 9 month old to crawl. I get it, you raised 4 boys, amazing. Let me do me.
