You sound. Very sensitive to minor irritants. [/quote]. oP sounds normal to me … [/quote]

Yeah plus she is nursing - Give her a freaking break … [/quote]
I no was a nursing mother once too, did not make me be mean to other people. [/quote] 
She wasn’t being mean - she was anonymously expressing frustration … I would be frustrated in her shoes as well. Loved the post of the person who plies her critical in laws with food and drink and plops them by the fire … while
Cheerily nodding and ignoring the passive aggressive jabs …[/quote]

DP. But it's not just anonymous frustration, because her husband has said some very strongly worded opinions on her behavior. If OP had not talked about what her husband said, I would agree with you. But it is clear from the fact her husband has talked about it that OP is in fact being mean.

How many men do you know that would say something like what OP reported to their nursing wife? It would only happen if the wife's behavior was egregious. For her DH to get to the point of saying something, her behavior must be pretty awful.[/quote]

Plus this 1000

To be honest, her husband sounds like a dick.

He has no patience to deal with his own mother’s annoying habits but wants his wife to do it with a smile? Oh, and while she’s nursing and getting no sleep too. He’s either being willfully clueless or he’s completely apathetic about adding even more on his wife’s already full plate.

I meant plus this 1,000,000

Clueless MIL raised clueless husband … they are probably
Both well meaning though …

Whoever wrote the neuro atypical advice sounded very sensible …[/quote]
