help! mil is visiting for a week for Christmas. I have a 6 mth old co-sleeper and a very attached 3 yr old. I spend most of my time playing and cuddling and caring for the kids, don't do chores after 8:30 pm, and dh is ok w/ chores but hopeless w/ the kids and considers fantasy football etc a priority, so the house is rarely clean. mil had two kids close together but (as far as she remembers) had a clean house, good meals, etc, and did it all herself. She tells dh we need to get a playpen so we (I) can do a better job w/ housework, like proper pot scrubbing. She finds my ap approach humerous and will probably have a lot to say when she finds out dd sleeps w/ me. I need support to survive, espec when dh starts agreeing w/ her.
