[quote=Anonymous]I get it, OP. My MIL came out to "help" us when DC#2 was born and it was a disaster. The day I was discharged from the hospital - totally exhausted and in pain from a 3rd degree tear - I was making dinner while DH handled both kids. MIL sat in another room playing on her iPad. We had even asked her to watch our oldest while we got dinner ready and she said she had to run upstairs for a moment but then we didn't see her until the food was ready. That's just one example of how "helpful" she was. We now know better than to expect any actual help from her when she stays with us, even if we ask. Now you know how your MIL will be with "helping" and you can adjust your expectations accordingly. [/quote]
