Me(35) have a step daughter (13) who spends every other weekend at my home. My husband and I have 3 kids. (4months/ 2 yrs/ and 4yrs)
My baby is super fussy. It’s been really bad. The dr said she is ok. She is really colicky. She cries all night long. The past few months have been a nightmare. Working all day, no sleep at night. I am a super light sleeper. I have been canceling our weekends with my step daughter. So my husband and I can catch up on sleep.
My step daughter decided to blast us on social media. she said “my dad and step mom can’t even take care of the kids they have. Yet they keep having more.” “So much for a reliable loving parent.”
Followed my husband’s family asking her what’s wrong. She let them know that we keep canceling on HER time. It’s not just HER time. It’s also her dads it’s been a very difficult situation for both of us. My in-laws are now saying we are the A’s in the situation. They stopped helping us with the younger kids all together. Am I the A here? I feel like it’s just circumstances. No one asks for a colicky baby.
