17 pregnant and living with the in-laws

Man, this is so stressful. All day everyday I hear something about someone, and its never good! Its always someone's wrong or someone isn't doing something right. I love my boyfriends father, he is the best person in my life currently. He's cool, calm and collected. My boyfriends mother on the other hand, HOLY COW! It feels like a manic mess, my boyfriend just got a job at UPS and were hoping that he will be making enough money to move out, but if not were going to wait so he can get a raise. Then were moving out, if anyone else is in this situation PLEASE tell me secrets on how to handle this. Theres six of us living here not including baby on the way. Theres three dogs and three cats. Smoking in the house and just the feeling of walking on egg shells around his mother. I've also recently found out that my placenta is getting weak.
Thank you for your secrets and advise, I REALLY am thankful for help.

Just put up as long as you can but don't let MIL walk all over you either.

When I was pregnant, and until DD was 10 months old, we lived with my MIL who is a psychotic, suicidal alcoholic.
Not including baby, there was 5 people in the house. We always felt like we were walking on eggshells, and got kicked out constantly, were always getting bitched at, etc.
Honestly, there's not really much you can do.You're living in her house and until you move out, you have to deal with it. We just stayed in our bedroom 99% of the time.

Why did you decide to move in with them? I wouldn't be able to live somewhere where people smoked indoors ESP when I was pregnant. I wouldn't want that around my baby...

Its a lot better then living with my own parents whom are abusive. I moved in with him to get away from it. My mother can be very Manic. and my father is in prison.

I don't know about where you live, but I'm in Indiana and I do volunteer work with younger parents around your age. Given that you are not living at home with your parents I'm guessing you have been emancipated. If I were you I would look into getting some assistance into getting my own housing and maybe something for an education. It's better if your not in a stressful living environment. I'm sure there is something in your area to help people in your situation. Good luck!

have looked into the Housing Hope, Section 8 and and things with college. Unfortunately, I'm not emancipated. CPS basically said I'm less then 5 months from being 18. There not going to send me back to my house.

im in a situation like yours im 19 and im due in less than 3 weeks, i live with my fiancee and his mother stepdad sister cat and dog. his stepdad is awesome him mom is too but she has OCD and cleans the house 4 times a day. its nice because i know the house is clean for the my son but its overwhelming when she tells me where im going to put my son for how long and what he can and cant touch. you can only deal with what you have. it may get on my nerves but hey hey took me and my son in when they didnt have to so im greatful and will listen to what they have to say but they ave to respect my choices as well since he is MY son.
