Both my in-laws have treated me like family since we started dating. We're really close and my MIL has actually made similar comments referring to when we have a LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-awesome-mil#post-190695 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 22:04:54 +0000 cyneswith 190695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My MIL today gave her scenario for when our baby comes (she's a mother of 5.) My mom will be here for the birth and for a week or two after. She goes home. A few weeks later, MIL comes out. She said "You WON'T want a lot of company when the baby comes. You'll need some time for just the three of you. When you need help again, I'll arrange for a week or two off work to come help you."</p> <p>I had been slightly intimidated at the thought of having both moms here at the same time, or having no gap between - I hadn't even considered making MIL wait almost a month to meet her first grandbaby!</p> <p>Have I mentioned that I LOVE my MIL?</p> <p>Anyone else have great in laws? </p>
