[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get how you feel, but it is ypur DH's house too.  But, given that he is the one to want her to stay, can he deal with all the crap...he should be cleaning the house, the sheets, buying groceries, making meals etc.  make him a list if you feel like he does not know what to do.  Make a schedule of what needs to be done ( for ypur job and child) and stick with it.  Make it clear that ypu are unable to cater to ypur SIL this visit.

OP, one thing that's not clear is why she is coming at this particular time.  Does she just announce when she is visiting, or did your DH extend an invitation?  If he invited her against your wishes, you do have a marital problem that needs to be worked out between the two of you.  not that you are right and he is wrong, or vice versa, but there needs to be better communication and compromise.

If she invited herself and DH is okay with it, then I agree with the above poster.  Be courteous while she's in your house, but tell him that it's not your job to prep for and manage the visit.  [/quote]
