Hi, actually when your tummy gets bigger, you might be Glad ur MIL is around to help. Actually I'm abit like you... quit job to look after my first and I'm currently pregnant with 2nd (but I quit because I wanted a break from work and to have more opportunities to hands on with my 2nd since I was a working Mom with my first and I didn't have opportunity to witness his first year milestones).
I wanted to do it all on my own, ask my mom to come less but just 2 days and I couldn't take it.. my down there start to become painful... cos I had to keep disciplining my Son / carry him... in e end I revert back to original arrangement of my Mom coming to my house by 10am every morning.
Maybe u can ask MIL to return home to stay (ask hubby to ask her) but say she can come over Everyday by a certain time to help out???
Don't regret being pregnant with 2nd just for the first. BOTH are ur kids!!!!
