#covid isolation #ranting #husband #iinlaws it is so frustrating. My husband was tested positive first then fully isolated himself. 2nd day morning, i myself was tested positive too. So I went into isolation but not fully. You see, we have 2 kids, 4yo and 8mths old. We do have a helper. Ideally I know I shld go into full isolation and not come out of the room at all. But with the 2 of us down, how can I possibly just abandoned the 2 young kids and let my helper take care 24/7 for at least the next 3 days? Its going to cause over exhaustion on my helper, especially the kids are extra cranky because daddy n mommy is suddenly locking themselves in the room. I alrdy tried to isolate as much as I can, only when I hear the kids crying nonstop then I went out to help my help. Prior to touching my kids, i change my clothes, wash my hands, wear my mask. These r measures i had already taken to prevent and minimise the risks. But to my husband, it is still not enough. He said when his sis in law gt covid, she locked herself fully in the room and doesnt dare to open door at all. Why she can and I cant? But you need to see the situation right? His bro gt 2 kids, a 10yo n 5yo. His bro is not down w covid. Of course they can manage with his sis in law fully in isolation. My husband can be in full isolation also because the first day I was neg and was outside to help my helper. I request for his parents to come and help, he rejected and said his parents is scared, and would not come. For the record, his parents was down w covid and recovered (test neg) a wk before my husband is positive. And they still scared? He go on to say tell anybody, his bro his sis in law his parents all say i am in the wrong and shld fully isolate myself . Pls, its just his own side of family thinks i am wrong and he thinks the whole world thinks this way too? If none of them wants to help, how can they blame me for not "abandoning" my young kids alone and leaving my helper to "die"? My friends arnd me, my boss n colleagues they can understand my situation and relate when i ask them for advice, yet my husband and his immediate family, people who is supposed to be closest to me and understand my hse situation more than others could not relate?

Currently 33 weeks pregnant with twins and im almost at my wits end. I am sooo tired and heavy. My feet is swollen. Im always breathless. Been suffering from pelvic pain since 2nd tri. Im ready for my elective c sect right now!#firstbaby #pregnancy #twin #ranting

So angry with my husband. He says that he earns much more money than me. I earn about 50k a year and he earns around 250k. As such proportionately he should only do at best 20% of parenting duties and I should do the remainder. I work just as long hours as him. But my job doesn’t pay as well. What should I do! #assholehubby #ranting

I am so fed up and wanted to rant. Im a ftwm and I usually reached home at arnd 7pm. My husband is selfemployed. Ive 2 kids (eldest 4yo) and most of the childcare during the time when the kids came home (armd 6pm) to when i reached home is taken by my helper and husband. Today my husband has an appointment at night. When my mil knew of this (at arnd 4.30pm), she suggested that she n my fil came over to my hse to help my helper take care of the kids. Sometimes they do that, so i agreed, especially since my husband niece n nephews r with my pil tdy. After I agreed, my mil informed that she would be buying mcd for the niece n nephew AND my eldest for dinner. I immediately called her and told her not to buy my eldest portion as my helper had already started cooking our dinner. She said ok. However, when I came home, I saw my eldest eating mcd. When I told my eldest to eat the dinner prepared by my helper first (my eldest is ok to eat the dinner prepared at home and readily accepts), my mil told my eldest not to worry and to eat mcd first. When she done eating mcd, she is too full to have the dinner prepared at home (of course!). My mil jist ask us to pour away the home cooked food my helper had scooped for my eldest. Im so upset with this. Firstly, my mil ignored and overwrite my instructions. Secondly, its not like my eldest dont want to eat home cooked food. How can she ask her to eat mcd (not so healthy food) before a proper meal? Thirdly, she disregard that there will be wasted food cooked by us. I understamd that she wants the kids to be happy. I would not mind mcd for dinner if dinner had not been prepared yet. I am also ok if my mil had let my eldest finish home cooked food before eating mcd. But fact is, the dinner had had been cooked and prepared, i even called to inform her and specifically ask her not to let my eldest eat mcd, she agreed only to overwrite my instructions later, and even asked my eldest to eat mcd first and throwing away the home cooked food where so much effort is taken to prepare and wasting it. Im so so so angry and upset. #ranting #MotherInLaw
