      Your MIL stays with you? :shock: How do you manage?


      Mine stays at the other end of the island, not that she is nasty but if we stay with her, I will get a permanent headache! The way she does things is very different from me and we will be stepping on each other's toes all the time.
      We stay with them.
      We manage.
      No major conflict.
      But yes, different approach when it comes to raising DD.
      We are careful to \"dance\" around each other's toes πŸ˜›

        You will be facing her 24/7 after you become a SAHM so both of you must have mastered excellent \"dancing\" skill. I no longer bother to perform that skill and she knows it.

          Admire your patience, I hate to \"dance\" around her toes.
          But if you manage then its good, she can help you look after DD when you
          need some time for hubs and you? πŸ˜‰

              Yes we do \"subcontract\" DD out to her and FIL on Saturday nights, which is our date night. I drive DH; pick, make reservations and pay for dinner; or we go to a movie. He makes me (and his family) dinner every night (plus extra for my lunch box the next day) so this is my way of saying thanks to him :love:
