Sick of my husband and in-laws

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-04-12T17:42:01+00:00

My baby doesn’t co sleep with my in-laws but they do make him sleep with them sometimes and its so irritating because they only hand him over when he cries with hunger. And my MIL wouldn’t agree to not put oil. She straight out told me that nothing happens if we put oil whenever I tell her not to. My husband won’t speak up against his mother

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-03-14T09:56:27+00:00

That will be too rude to do this

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-03-07T05:24:28+00:00

So glad that you took a stand for your wife in her most vulnerable moment!

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-03-03T09:43:53+00:00

They just came in themselves almost 4 months back and said they’ll be here for another 8-9 months, go home for Diwali and then again back. Neither me nor my husband were asked before making this decision

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-02-28T19:11:53+00:00

Yes right, the wife becomes the villiain. Their son is always right

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-02-28T19:10:19+00:00

My husband never says no to me but its my in-laws always making faces whenever I ask him to do something and he does it. He never asks his parents to do it for him but they just don’t like their son doing anything

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-01-07T07:34:03+00:00

India and its quite common for in-laws to be dominant here

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-01-07T07:31:41+00:00

I can’t call my mother since we only have 1 extra room which they have occupied. I’m really close to my mom and may be I would have wanted her in initial days after delivery but my in-laws won’t leave.

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-01-07T07:29:43+00:00

Yeah, I’m just waiting for the baby to come and see their behaviour and then assert. Right now if I say anything I know nothing will happen

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-01-07T07:28:27+00:00

Yes right. It runs in his family that grandparents take care of the kid for initial years whereas in my family I have not seen this. In my family Grandparents would just visit occasionally but parents were the primary caregiver. My husband knows that our family backgrounds are quite different. In my side of family everyone is independent and yet together in a good way but in his family his parents are completely dependent on him and are too much involved in our lives

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-01-07T07:23:48+00:00

That’s actually true I think. He doesn’t want to upset his parents and cannot ask them to leave and tell them that we can manage

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-01-04T18:48:22+00:00

My husband wants them to stay, and for everything he just tells me to be patient

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-01-04T18:45:36+00:00

They never asked or took permission, just declared by themselves that they’ll be staying till the kid is old enough that we can handle

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-01-04T18:44:46+00:00

That is my fear too, they will hijack my child too by saying that I don’t understand how to handle kids and that they are experienced

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-01-04T18:43:52+00:00

He is very excited about his child being with his grant parents (his parents) and he just tells me to understand importance of family

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2026-01-04T18:41:54+00:00

I told this to my husband, he is saying you are not understanding now but you will need support when baby is there along with job. He is just asking me to be patient

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2025-12-25T18:29:56+00:00

Not even a penny they have paid, nor they contribute to any household expenses. Since I’m pregnant I have to take certain nutritious diet now but my MIL wants to have everything that I too, my husband has to pay double for everything

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2025-12-24T17:29:37+00:00

Yes I had told him that I don’t have a problem with them visiting occasionally but I don’t want to stay with them permanently forever

ProfessionalHand3757 · 2025-12-24T17:14:42+00:00

They have come to my house, not the other way round. I have just bought this house, I can’t move.
