Yes I have my mil to help. But at 1 time, my mil was working at my FIL's shop, she would cook for me in the morning during confinement, den she would go to work and come back around 4pm, den cook dinner for all of us. This go on for about 2 months den she go back to work full time. At that time I look after both my kids. My eldest was in playgroup then, (between 9am-11am I am alone with 1 baby) So I cook for them, bath them, do housework, bring my son to school, fetch him.. And all that is to do at home. Hubby was in sales line then, he could work for 3 months without any off day.. Until my 2nd wan about 1yo den I go out and find job.. So for this 1 year or so I took care of them in that day, in the night, my mil and fil would play with them, and so call help to look after them when they come home.. But to an extent only. If they poo or they make a mess of themselves, I would still have to clean it all up.. It's only until I was preggy with my 3rd baby then my life better in a sense that my mil became more understanding.. And we dun quarrel all the time..
