Getting married TODAY OMG....

proud mom's picture

Yes today it was a spur of the moment thing we were going to go out of town but made some calls yesterday and we are getting married here at 11am. OMG....I am sooooooooo nervous. The only people we have told was our parents and my boys (6yrs and 10yrs) I gave them the option to go to school or go with us and they are going with us. I am nervous and excited all in one. I can't belive it is finally going to happen. His parents and my mom are going to be there. His ex is probably going to sh**.

Is this appropriate?....

Is this scenario appropriate?

MIL in hospital with serious but currently stable condition.

BM, finds this out and turns up at the hospital unannounced to visit ex-MIL, uninvited and without prior notice to DH.

BM is carrying a set of keys in her hand and asks ex-father-in-law if he wants to stay at her place (she is not far from the hospital).

still more problems

So I moved the babies Crib into the room, wow what a fight that was. SS threw things at it, and tried to take it apart. I had to get DH set in. We talked to him that now he will have to share the room. But he was so upset. I'm at my wits end. I've tried to move things in slowly, but I always find them in the hall after wards. When Baby is a toddler, I just don't know what to do. there is no way we can afford a 3 bedroom place. And I just don't think it's fair for my daughter to share a room with her brother after that point, we may have to move him to the couch on weekends.

mothers day ring?????

well once again I'm at a stand still with my mil. I love her to death but she just doesn't understand. For Mother's Day my hubby offered to buy me a new mothers day ring with the new babies birthstone. I have one now with just my sons stone. Our daughter is due in june and I had told him a while back that I needed to get one for her too. He said just to get one with both stones. I was so excited. I began looking online and chose a beautiful ring. I showed her a picture of the ring I chose and she said that I should add my ss birthstone to it also. I hadn't even considered it.

Face to Face with BM

I just wanted to updated you all that read my post last week. As a lot of you are aware, BM has never been nice to me in the three years that I have been with DH. She made it very well known that she didn't like me and did not wish to have anything to do with me. So, every time we are in the same place, we just ignore each other - it has been very awkward.

I don't know what to do, or how to protect myself. As this is my first post, I am going to give a brief background.
Two years ago, I met the man I wanted to marry. As things go, there were complications. The man was still married. No, I was not the other woman, never WOULD be. He had been separated from his wife for two years when I met him and both had dated others in the meantime. When we began to get serious I insisted that there be no secrets and that he tell his wife he was involved. I thought it fair to her, and respectful of me. She didn't take it so well.

my new baby

peachymom's picture

I'm new on here and kind of need to vent. I just had a new baby, and my husband has a 6 year old from his ex. Lately I feel very resentful of the 6 year old. The new baby and him have to share a room, I really want to decorate the room for the baby, cuz the 6 year old is only here on the weekend, 2 nights. But my husband feels like the room is just for his soon. Baby is now 2 month old, and has nothing in the room for her. I can't move anything in there with out hearing a fit from the 6 year old that it's his room. It's driving me up the wall.

Need an opinion

Georgie Girl's picture

Hopefully someone will be able to read this, because I am not sure where it is going to go. I had pick up my Mom's car today and my mil offered to help. So we go to get the car and are talking along the way. She often brings up the ex. Well today was no exception. She had asked about a nieghbor of mine who is splitting with her husband and it went from that to how she feels the ex says too much to the kids about things. So my mil said that sometimes she would like to tell the sd the truth. bm had an affair and left the marriage. mil doesn't tell sd to save the kids from this.

Dad finally reaches out and gets slapped down

My husband just called me. At the request of his son, he went to see his football game. Flew out, rented a car, got a hotel room all for 1 night stay. He arrives and the ex, who knew he was comming in town, tells him that he can take the kids to lunch and then to the game, oh by the way the all have friends over and then after the game SS wants to spend the night at his friends house who by the way spent the night at his house last night and SD wants to spend the night at her friends. The other SD went out of town for the weekend. I feel so bad for him.
