Good MIL comment

"If her sleepers aren't big in the legs, she will be bow legged" and somehow H believes that. Apparently, if the legs are stretched out with no extra material they are too small. I told him they aren't made out of cement, it's freaking cotton. Plus, she's not in one for more than a few hours before she drools all over it!
I am ready to smack my stupid ass husband for listening to this crap. I have warned him before not even to tell MIL if she's having trouble sleeping or is cranky from teething because she'll have some asinine remark. She said this gem in reference to a video I posted.

I'm ready to kill H. So I find some official website about how legs get bowed and he goes OFF on me. "Good for you, you are smarter than my mother", "What's the point of me yelling at her" etc. And then tries telling me he was being sarcastic. Um, you looked pretty serious to me, especially when you said "Well my pediatrician told her that".
Guess who's sleeping on the couch tonight. Don't tell me to STFU.

Oh my gosh, my husband seems to think that I hate everything his mother gets for Anja. I have a bag of giveaways and there is a purple teddy bear in it. He thought his mother gave that to A and got really offended that I was giving it away. Nope, it was a mass gift from people at work. The fur comes off and I don't want her eating it.
Men. SMH.
THIS ISN'T THE BUMP, THIS IS SPARTA!!!
I hate that. DH can be an ass, but as soon as he starts calling me names and telling me to STFU, I'm done.
Yeah, that's just too much for me. He never yells so it just makes it worse. Now I feel like an asshat when I really shouldn't because I didn't do anything wrong. Is it bad that I hope Josie starts screaming the second he falls asleep?
I am so pissed. He just went to bed without saying anything to me. Grr.

Oh lord, men and their mothers.
Thankfully A knew MIL's most recent gem was insane as soon as she said it. She told us if Luke was teething, we could give him a bone to chew on. She was dead. effing. serious.
My dad told me the other day that they used to pop the knuckles off of a chicken drumstick bone and give it to me to chew on >_>
Well I do feel a little better knowing she didn't totally pull this out of her ass, even though it is insane. I don't even let the dogs have most table scrap bones!
I figure there's no real reason to give him bones when everything I give him to play with becomes a teether anyway!
I've never heard that one before! DH keeps telling me DS's clothes are getting too small the second they aren't baggy any more. For the ones with feet, he says "See, his toes are curling under when he stands and stretches out." Apparently, he's never payed attention to DS's bare feet before, nor read any of the baby books that litter the house.
ETA: I didn't read the whole thread before posting.
Sorry your DH is being an @ss. I hate when they get all defensive like that, then try turning it around on us, making us feel like crap instead. DH is a master at this - he should have been a lawyer.
