She sent a message and screenshot to DH and myself saying she bought a plane ticket for next week which is a week before my due date. She was saying she was so excited to be staying with us to help with the baby.

DH called her right away asking why she would do that when we told her no. She said she thought we would change our minds especially when the baby is here. I am not going to change my mind. I told her she can not stay with us. I cant stop her from coming but she needs to find her own accommodations

She says she doesnt have the money for it. That isnt our problem. She has always been a little overbearing but this is a whole new level. It would be better if she just doesnt come at all but if she does she isnt staying with us for even one night.

How dumb. I would have complete say lol. Would not happen in my home.
Why wouldn’t your DH have equal say? I don’t think anyone would want a house guest for 2 months, but they is certainly a compromise available here. I would never tell my DH his mother couldn’t come, but I would offer suggestions about how long she should stay.
Because he just doesn’t. I run things around here. From cleaning to what we have for dinner to house guests. MIL would certainly be welcome to visit a new baby but to stay there for 2 months? Hell no. I have my routine.
Yep.

Idk where you find these people. My retired friends must be cold hearted. They have lives. They're not going to stay where they're not welcome for two months.

I wouldn't want someone staying with me for two months. Coming over to help every once in awhile would be one thing. Being there for an extended period of time. No thanks! And before you say it. Nope, wouldn't even allow my own mother to stay over that long.
The oranges of the island are like blazing fire
Amongst the emerald boughs
And the lemons are like the paleness of a lover
Who has spent the night crying.

I can't even imagine wanting to stay with any of my kids for two weeks, much less two months. I raised them. They can raise their own. I can finally take off and do what I like. I want to be Gram, not mommy.
