Rant about MIL

When I wanted to get a confinement nanny my MIL was so resistant to it. She does not like strangers in her house and is paranoid about thief. She said she can help with taking of baby and doing some night shifts. So when baby came earlier than expected, I did not get one. She is happier that I didn’t get one. Now 2 weeks in, she has not done a single night shift. I just mentioned to her yesterday that her son is very tired. But she has not done anything yet. She does day duty and it’s not much cos everyone know nights are the toughest. Think she might not be confident w dealing with baby. But she has always said she has loads of experience and she did take care of 3 of her sons on her own and baby sitter to tonnes before. Just ranting. Thoughts of getting a helper and that will make her more uncomfortable 🤣

Ya ya ya old people with their old mindset. Thats the thing about staying with in laws. Say want to help bla bla bla end up better alone. You should speak to your husband about this. As the first few weeks, especially, will be extremely exhausting mentally physically emotionally, esp when theres no extra helping hand
