She is 28, graduated from college 2 years ago and I just found out she aplied for the job 3 month ago, knowin that classes would start 15 days after our baby shoul have been born. Her mom is coming everyday to our place to take care of our girl. I can't satand this any more. I don't think ist is fair, She does not need to work, specially now. I have been the provider since we got married 2 yeras ago. What can I do, I've tried to talking her into leaving or postponing her job but she doesn't listen. I don't know what to do??????

well you cant just tell your wife that she doesnt have to work and that your the bread winner in the family. If it makes her happy that shes working then let her be. I dont see why you should get upset and whats wrong with having her mom coming over to take care of her child. At least she being a good grandma and coming over to see her grandchildren unlike other grandparents, most dont care.

Why don't you stay home? What makes you think that just because she's female she has to do the child care?
There's more to work than just earning money. Work can give someone a sense of satisfaction, and a chance to get out of the house and talk to people.
It sounds like the two of you need to sit down and talk about what you both want. You need to join the 21st century with your attitude toward women, as well.

Do you have any idea how expensive children are? You should be grateful that your wife is taking the initiative to contribute to the family income. And it sounds like she is only working part-time, so she is still available to care for your child. Have YOU taken any time off work to care for the new baby? If not, what is unfair about your mother-in-law caring for the baby while your wife works? Are you perhaps jealous that your wife has a college education and wants to make use of her degree? What are you really upset about?

medical doctors calculate your being pregnant time with the aid of observing your final menstrual era. So, you conceived 2 weeks in the past, yet you're seen pregnant as of your final era. it relatively is a doctor subject, and we purely all bypass alongside with it. it relatively is no longer a misinform say "4 weeks pregnant", it relatively is many times conventional that it is how pregnant you're. The being pregnant would be 40 weeks, different than technically, you will comprehend that it relatively is only 38. It does not rather count selection in the tip, and as quickly as you get used to it, you in all probability won't think of approximately it anymore. So, you're 4 weeks pregnant. Congratulations!

The job part time. I wouldn't stress it. She just wants out of the house for a while. You don't think it's fair cause she works. I don't think it's fair that you have a problem with her working. Stay at home moms need vacations from the kids too u know... Just give her this little bit time to herself. Let her work part-time.

Sorry but you are kinda sounding selfish. Sometimes we need a break especially after being pregnant for almost a year long. It is kinda like our escape having a job. Her mom is helping out that is cool. At least you aren't left alone with the baby. Let your wife have her own thing or else she will go crazy.

You know, some women are better mothers because they work. She needs to work, more than likely. Get over yourself. She has a degree and she wants to work. Appreciate the financial help she is providing. She probably doesn't even care about the money. She just wants to work. How selfish are you!?

A lot of women enjoy working, I sure do (no really, I love my job!)! It's a huge part of who I am, and the first time my husband told me I couldn't work, he'd have to call the fire department to put out the bonfire in the driveway of all of his crap. He's my husband, not my boss! Why don't you stay home?

sure. with you working and her mom available to take care of the baby, she's just looking for a way to fill her time during the day. she still feels the need to grow and express herself in the world, rather than allow herself to be "domesticated"

She wants to work, so let her. What is the big deal? ALL women don't fancy staying at home and just being a mother. It isn't like she is dropping the kid off at daycare.
