MIL Drama

I completely understand why you are upset about this. I would be too. Did your partner know about this or were they ambushed? I think I would be more upset with my partner if they in fact went along with it. Overbearing MILs do much more damage when you have a partner who doesn't have boundaries.
@Jem i am not too sure but I know it was at least 15 people there because I found food, alcohol and presents when i came back from my trip. It was definitely planned because it was sneakily thrown while i was away. When i questioned my partner about having a party, he just said “no my family just came over”
And his mom was over for the weekend helping him with baby while i was gone and thought it was a good idea to have family over since she was there. Interesting though… because why couldn’t they come over while i was there? And this is not the first time she is over our house to help either..
I understand. I still think it’s on your partner. He should’ve said no. He should’ve said if you are not here, we are not having a party. Your MIL pushed boundaries because your partner allowed it.
Your partner knew you'd be away. Your partner complicity planned this. Your partner exposed your child to illness. Your partner told everyone it was fine to come over and let them inside. He cleaned the house before and after. He hosted the party. Your MIL may have pushed him, but he's a big boy that can say no to mommy. It was not last minute thing, they had time to get gifts! Put the blame where it belongs and confront your partner.
I personally don’t like being around my in laws so them throwing a party without me sounds great 😅 But yeah I deff gotta be informed of who my baby is around
@Bonny he can’t say no because he’s a mommas boy
@Luz lmao 🤣🤣🤣🤣trust me i didn’t care to be there. But i did care about my baby! Because he is only a baby and getting exposed to all of these illnesses
It's definitely a momma boy problem.
I need more context. How big was this party? Was it planned or a sporadic thing? I would talk to your husband about that honestly, he is the parent and should’ve said no to his mom. When you are not around it’s his job to protect your child. It’s also his job to protect your feelings by telling his mom to chill. Even if he couldn’t stop her, did he text you to let you know what she was doing?
