Strict without being overly strict and I think DH and I will be (hope to be) the same way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-parenting-similar-to-your-mom-or-your-mil-or-neither#post-342114 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 06:40:25 +0000 meredithNYC 342114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm pretty similar to both my mom and mother-in-law. Both believe in keeping baby on a schedule and both put a high emphasis on keeping the house put together and organized. I don't always succeed at either of these goals, but they're important to me and help preserve my sanity! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-parenting-similar-to-your-mom-or-your-mil-or-neither#post-342100 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 05:17:23 +0000 sera_87 342100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've come to realize over the last 2 months, my mom &amp; I have a lot of the same ideals/thoughts about raising babies (I wouldn't go so far as to say 'parenting style'). We both believe in baby wearing, breastfeeding, co-sleeping, no CIO, CDing, having them listen to music, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-parenting-similar-to-your-mom-or-your-mil-or-neither#post-89881 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 21:14:00 +0000 chopsuey 89881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The older I get the more I become like my mom too. I love my mom! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-parenting-similar-to-your-mom-or-your-mil-or-neither#post-89874 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 21:09:50 +0000 heffalump 89874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom and mil are very similar. And I think I'm like both of them when it comes to parenting.</p> <p>Luckily my husband is like his father and not like mine and actually helps out around the house. My mom has to do everything, and with 3 kids I don't know how she did it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-parenting-similar-to-your-mom-or-your-mil-or-neither#post-89871 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 21:07:45 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 89871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm neither. Not sure where I'm getting my parenting skills from... but then again, I'm only 6 weeks in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-parenting-similar-to-your-mom-or-your-mil-or-neither#post-89870 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 21:07:34 +0000 BSB 89870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We will most likely be a little bit of both. It will mostly be 'our' style and not really 'theirs'. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-parenting-similar-to-your-mom-or-your-mil-or-neither#post-89867 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 21:02:33 +0000 s1lly 89867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The more older I get, the more I am like my mom than I realize... more so in the housewife duties. In the parenting, I'm not so sure yet. My mom was really strict to the point of hovering (which made me rebellious)...she was a tiger mom. My MIL, on the other hand, was not as strict but all her kids turned out fine and are pretty successful. I think I'd be somewhere in the middle. </p>
