*upset/stressed and mad* [vent]

posted 12th May
Thi is kinda long but i'll try to make it short..
im almost 28 weeks pregnant, lately feeling really tired, sleepy, nauseous, and headaches all day.!! ..
i have a nice boyfriend who takes care of me and his baby on the way
he works hard 6 days a week almost 10hrs a day,
Everything sounds good [BUT] we live at his parents house, yeah ;[
we moved here with them last month BECAUSE they told us they wanted to help us with the baby and for us to save more money for this baby on the way.
we live in a huge house and its hard for me to clean 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 1 kitchen and 2 living rooms YEAH you heard right, Im the one who have to clean all that, plus i have to cook for 7 people,
i just cant do all that by my self!!!!.. im tired of doing it, i feel miserable..
His mom is here 24/7 she doent work at all and all she does is SLEEP and GET DRUNK every day..and she doesnt even help me do anything.
also my boyfriend have 2 little brothers age 6 and 7
their mom never wants to cook food for them, they are always starving, and that is really upseting to me..i dont mind cooking for the little brothers or my Boyfriend you know,
but i think the mom should be a little bit more responsable, and i deserve enyoing my pregnancy am i right?
i just dont know how to tell my Bf all this with out making him mad or feel like im picking on his parents!..
oh and we give them 350.00 dls a month for rent.

Don't make enough food for his parents!!! Don't clean their room either! Choose a living room you'd rather be in and just clean that one...can you get away with that?

I dont think that is right at all. You shouldnt have to
do anything besides clean up after yourself. And your
bf shouldnt get mad for that he should understand and
if he doesnt then he needs to put himself in your postion
and see how he would feel. I mean your paying 350 and then
you gotta clean the whole house and cook all the damn time?
Thats just not right.....

Sounds like she is taking advantage of the fact that you are staying there. Let her know that you can't be a mom for her. Sorry I'm not much help.

you need to tell him how you feel for the baby and your sake its not fair that on top of rent you have to take care of all the household needs for 350 you could have your own place and there are many programs/churches out there that can assist if you need help with bills such as lights and house phone

This is just my opinion but.....I had a baby young, I was 20. We chose instead of getting into the same situation as your in; to get a small apartment together. It had 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. I loved it! I loved the independence. There were hurt feelings between family members for that decision, but after a couple of months, they were used to it. I was able to decorate my nursery and really create my family. We started our own traditions and became a family unit. Yes, it is nice in theory if his family helped you. I can imagine what you're going through, because I would have been in a similar circumstance. It was healthier for me, my boyfriend (husband now) and my baby. If I were you, I would probably apply to apartments or for houses asap.

If you are paying rent I don't see why you have to clean that big house by your self. How did you even get into cleaning the whole house? Did u offer to do it in the beginning or did they tell you to do it?

Tell him in a way that is nice. Like you are real tired, and it is too much for you.

I think if you are paying rent to them your responsibilites should not exceed taking care of yourself and your own area. BUT since they don't see it that way perhaps you should calmly bring it up to your bf that you are feeling a little stressed and tired over all the work you've been doing...
