We stay with them.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 manage.
No major conflict.
But yes, different approach when it comes to raising DD.
We are careful to \"dance\" around each other's toes

duriz:
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.

But if you manage then its good, she can help you look after DD when you
need some time for hubs and you?

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:

What an amazing DH you have! He cooks for you and his family? I must get my DH to read this..but honestly, I cant cook also so I cant complain. Any thoughts of having more children?
