alone time with the husband

Am I the only mom that feels like life and our relationship is going to completely change with the baby being born?? I know there is no more us. We are becoming a family and life as we have known it for the last 6 years is changing. Am I right? My MIL lives with us which wasn't suppose to happen. And my husband tells me today she plans on living here until the baby's born!! I see a big issue here. I feel as if the last few months of pregnancy it should be him and I in our house so we can enjoy our last months being us. Adjusting to the baby coming and getting everything sorted out. I feel like with her staying here mind you she's been here a little over a month its a big issue!! I've lost all my privacy and my alone time with my husband. It pisses me off. And when I bring it all up he gets upset at me!! Am I wrong or is life as we know it gonna change and we need to enjoy and embrace these final few months of our lives??? Anyone else have in law issues??

Me my husband and I moved to Airdrie Alberta before I met his family turns out we live 5 minutes away from his parents. She comes over every other night. And she mentioned that she's gunna stay here for a week after my son is born. My mom lives an hour away and I want her here for a week to ten days after my son and I would prefer my mother then my husband's mother. She lives 5 minutes away like why would she want to stay with us. And she judged me when I first got pregnant cause we werent married.

I'll be praying for you hun. I dealt with it for a little while then said oh no, I can't live like this for the rest of my life. I know it's frustrating. Prayer does work

Nope, no in law issues because I told my husband if you still want to suck on breast milk & make your mother happier than your wife than marry her. In law issues have to be addressed early & that man has to realize his family is now that woman & child not mommy. He's getting upset with you because he knows you're right but doesn't want to stand up to his mommy.

I can't handle it.! She moved across the country and back missed our wedding but back for the baby! She is supposedly is moving again and I hope to god its sooner than later!! I hate how broken it makes us!! She's never been a big help to either of us and defiantly isn't now!!

I do! My mil is driving me nuts! But I don't think your wrong but if he insist on her being there do what I do when I want alone time I stay in my room and tell people I don't feel good. My mil wants to come lots after the baby is born and I'm so worried she isn't going to left me breath or be alone. So we will see.
