How can i celebrate MIL departure?

Question

Hello,

Tomorrow is the 23rd and i have been waiting and couting hours for this day to arrive

Guess why?

It's my MIL flight date, she is leaving us after 3 months visit. She has been driving me MAD with her ignorance and silly comments, she interfered a LOT in the way i care for baby since he was born, spoilt the whole experience of having first baby ( i was not allowed to bath him till he was 6 weeks!!!!!!) and she pushed my husband to buy her and family SOOO MANY gifts, when she knew that he could not afford to pay his own mobile bill, and that he lost his job few days ago and in debt (6000 pounds)... he bought soo many things for her and till today she is asking for more and telling him : Oh your brother asked me to bring him trainers, your sister need coffee blender, your neice expects something as well !!!!! ( He got a MASSIVE FAMILY , 12 brothers and sisters all married with many children , a whole town!!)

Brief, i am looking for ways to celebrate her departure, so i can let go the STRESS and DEPRESSION which deprived my baby from breastmilk and healthy mummy

thanks in advance

Answer 1

you are a stressed out ma-ma.  the timing was all wrong.  take a deep breath and enjoy your life now.  but remember, she IS a good person for sure.  your hubby IS a good son for sure.  and you are good too.  don't lose sight of the fact, no one is bad.  just the timing.  now go kiss the baby and smile.

Answer 2

Have a party with a barbecue.

Or get a babysitter and go out with your husband for the evening.

Or take  along soak in a nice warm bath and relish in spending the evening with just your husband and baby.

I am sorry that you have had to have this extra stress when you have a new baby. 3 months is definitely to long for a visit when you have just given birth. You needed time with to get used to being a mum without the added hassle.

Congratulations on the birth of your son and at least you can relax now.

And your husband needs to learn to say no to his mother. He should not have to spend money on everyone when he cannot afford to do so

Answer 3

throw a party!!get the flags out!!!and move to the moon so she cant ever visit again lol
