So irritated!! (long and venting)
DH and I are not on the same page right now and I am so freaking irritated.
My mom watches N during the weekdays while DH works (she has an in-home daycare, so this is not a big deal). Last weekend my parents had N one day and the ILs had him one day. This weekend, the plan was the same.
ILs had N yesterday from 11am-6pm, then they brought him to the hospital to visit me (which was way too late- he was tired and grouchy and only stayed an hour) then everyone left around 7:30 and N went home with DH for the night.
The plan for today was that DH was going to drop N off with my parents around 11, go get groceries, and come visit me. My parents were going to take N to get a haircut, let him nap, then bring him here to visit around 3. Seeing as it's the weekend I expect to be able to see my baby more often than during the week and they GET IT. So, they were going to bring him earlier because he'd be in a better mood, we could all eat dinner together, etc. Then DH would take N home again this evening for bed.
So this morning my mom texts and says N isn't going over that DH "let his parents have him instead." First of all, WTF. I am still his mother, I still deserve to know where the hell my child is and what is going on. Secondly, plans had been made- he had a hair appt, etc. So I call DH and he tells me he a) forgot about the hair appt, b) thought my mom had to work tonight and c) figured his parents had seen him less often so it was okay.
EEERRRRRRRRRRGGGGGG!!!!!!! Yes, my mom has had N all week but that's NOT the same as one-on-one time with him on the weekend. And not to mention, his parents still saw him 2x during the weeknights this past week.
I am so freaking ready to go home and get back to normal. I am not dealing well with not being "in control" and I do NOT like not knowing what's going on with my own child.
You better bet when DH gets here there will be a discussion because I am fuming. FUMING.
Thanks for listening to my vent. I am so irritated. Had my mom not told me what was going on, I wouldn't have even known where N was today until I got a text from my MIL and that's not cool. Not to mention, if my ILs keep him all day then I (again) would only get to see him for an hour or so this evening. Luckily, my hissy fit on the phone with DH got him to change plans so now N is napping then getting taken to my mom so the day can be as close to normal as planned. Grrrrrrrrrrr. I want to go home.

((hugs))
I am also a control freak and it killed me to not be able to do anything at the end of my pregnancy. I just sat on the couch all day and had to instruct others what to do. I cannot imagine how much worse it is for you since you are not home. Just try to relax cause stressing out won't be good for the girls! Even though things are out of your control Nolan is being taken care of and you will be home soon! Things won't go back to the old normal as you'll have your two beautiful daughters in the mix too!

I am sure my BP was through the roof this morning, I was livid. DH came and we talked and I told him that regardless of me not being there, decisions still need to be discussed and made together and he said okay. I'm still kind of grumpy but I'll get over it.
I'm ready for our NEW normal.
Our crazy, wonderful life
