I'm ard 10w3d too!
Hee. My hubby will ask me listen left ear, right ear go out cause he knows his mum is like that. But he is filial to a fault. Even if she is wrong, must give in to her. -_- Moreover now I'm not with him, she is just nagging at him more. So I kinda feel for him but that also means that he is not as patient with me cause of his mum. -_-

Lucky you! I saw how they take care of my sil's son and would be worried if they take care of my child.
Over there, the culture is different. Like, children give birth, don't have to take care. Parents will take care for the children. Half e time I'm baby-sitting for my sil cause she simply throw the kid in the house, cry also don't care kind.
At first the in laws are determined that they want to take care of the child, then, everyone busy, the baby is left to be cared for in the office. And finally sent to a nanny from 7-6everyday when he is about 8mths old.
I don't want the same to happen to my child. So decided to quit. Our pay there is horrible. In Sg, I earn more than what the 2 of us are earning together now. So have to figure something out. Maybe do free lance translation or something.

My friend's mil is very nice. She teaches at the university so she understands our generation better. She got the son and dil a house and a car so that they can move out, reduce friction. She say, staying together will create friction ESP if habits are different. But I've got say, mil like her, really very rare in taiwan.
I've to fly back to Taiwan on the 31st, fil knows my intention to give birth here, but the final decision is not up to him. They always say one thing and mean another. So trying not to get our hopes up.
