I married my husband & we moved into his moms house(saving for a house of our own) with our 2 kids.

At first it was okay but gradually I started to feel uncomfortable. She expects me to clean any mess she or her guests make. Sometimes she'll clean but most of time it's me.

She has lately been telling me how to parent.

Apparently I can't let my toddler cry because he will grow to hate me or his vocal cords will pop.

Tells me to basically never have time to myself.

She says as a mom I'm the one to be with kids but my husband doesn't got to.

I learned from my mother she's talking bad about me to one of their shared friends.

I'm livid. My husband didn't even defend me when she lectured me on how to be a mother.

I feel like I made a mistake.

I love my husband and definitely don't regret our children but I'm miserable. I can't complain because he turns it around and he defends his mom so fast.

I feel like living with her is ruining our marriage because I'm afraid to argue with her. I honestly thought my husband would have my side he never seemed like a momma boy until recently. She used to love me.

I know she talks bad about me to my in laws because they give me looks.

I just feel so sad all the time and only happy with my kids and at times my husband.

I've tried talking to him but he thinks I don't appreciate the fact we have somewhere to live and save money.

I can't wait to have a place of my own.

Glad to get a bit of my stress off my chest.
