I could just strangle my MIL right now 🤬😡
I have no one else to rant to about this so forgive my ridiculous rant rn.
I have spent the last 2 weeks crying it out with my toddler at night time so she will go to sleep in her own cot at the end of our room instead of right next to our bed. She has found this incredibly difficult and was finally at a point 2 days ago where she didn’t cry at all and just went to sleep when I put her to bed in her routine.
Yesterday my MIL decided to turn up at my house at 8pm, an hour after bedtime, and stay until 10:55pm messing around with my daughter and husband playing happy families (though she didn’t see my kid for 8 MONTHS after my husband and hers had an argument) and by the end of the night I was saying “she’s really tired, she needs to go to bed” and neither hubs nor MIL would take the hint.
Eventually when I got her up to bed she was beside herself crying, wouldn’t settle and took 1.5 hours of crying.
Tonight we are right back at the start of the cycle as if she had never had the last 2 weeks of sleep training. All because this self indulgent idiot wanted to come and take photos of my kid and pretend she’s mother of the year.
I AM SO ANNOYED with her for doing it and my husband for allowing it.
Anyone else with bad mother in law stories please feel free to share so I know I’m not the only one dealing with this fucking absurdity?
