Baby Fever vs. Financial Fear: My In-Law Showdown 😱🍼
My husband keeps dropping baby hints like it’s just another errand, but my brain is screaming about bills, daycare, and how we’d even afford a bigger place! His parents are obsessed with grandkids, but only talk to him—like I’m just a vessel, not a partner with real worries. My own parents are distant, but would help if I begged.
Last night at their fancy dining table, I finally lost it. I blurted out, “Are your parents planning to help, or do they just want a grandkid at any cost?” Total silence. My husband looked stunned, his mom was clearly offended, and suddenly I’m the villain for daring to talk about money. Why is it so taboo to discuss financial support before making life-changing decisions? Am I wrong for wanting clarity before jumping in? How do I get everyone to talk openly without looking greedy? Please, tell me what you’d do, because I’m drowning here! 😭💸
