Actually remembered the thing that absolutely annoys me the most in there... nicknames.
"I like the name Tom as nickname, what shall I name my child?" Erm....Tom?
"I want my child to have to nickname Potato, what shall I name them?"
"I am naming my child Potato, their nickname will be Pot"
No no no. If you like a name, then name them that. And you cannot CHOOSE a nickname, they are something that happens organically and have a story behind them.
Rant over.

I don't want anyone touching my baby, not at all, ever. My MIL has had two coldsores, once in the 70's and again in '98 I'm really unhappy that she thinks she should be able to come to my house! I can't believe she would take such a risk.
Neither me or my husband have ever kissed our baby, well certainly no higher than the ankle, those germs travel you know. AIBU to put my babies health first?

Of course you’re not being unreasonable! Sounds like you have a DH problem, why isn’t he sticking up for you against his mum? Could he be having an affair?
Well I have previously asked him to leave after he went on his annual night out and came home at 9.15pm when he absolutely promised me he would be home BY 9.
Not only did he come home in the middle of the night but he very VERY nearly woke me up, made toast and didn't even bother to put his plate in the dishwasher afterwards. He just loses control on these wild nights and I really can't have that around the new baby.
Unfortunately I haven't worked for 6 years as we were TTC so he pays for everything. As a new mum I obviously won't be able to work for the next 11 years so I will need to get my ducks in a row.
………should’ve thrown his stuff into bin bags and left them outside the door and remember to change the locks! Dealbreaker for me. I’m actually shaking in anger on your behalf !
Get all of your important documents together and hide them in the boot of your car NOW.
Yes! Get your ducks in a row. So sorry this happened to you OP….. <followed by lots of ‘you ok Op?’ because tbh, we’re only here for the gossip>
Are you safe? Call Women‘s Aid..
I couldn’t sleep last night as I was refreshing this thread 1000 times a minute to see if OP was ok. My heart is breaking and I care so much for you, OP, even though I don’t know you. I’ve even neglected my own DS7, DD5, DD4, DDog15 and divorced my DH just to keep up to date with this (juicy gossip) thread.
OP, have you thought of taking in ironing? Or do you have anything you can sell on Facebook? * unmumsnet hug *
How quickly can you learn to drive? You could do home takeaway deliveries, parcels. When I was struggling financially (DH was only making a five figure salary at the time..I know! I know!) I found getting rid of the au pair and nanny freed up some much needed cash for our annual 5 holidays abroad, could you do something like that OP? <head tilt>
Even just checking behind the sofa cushions can help. I found 14p by doing that last week, which was enough to buy a flump.
I always think the same!! ‘I’m calling her Matilda, Tilly for short…’ well call her bliddy Tilly then!! Or ‘Ottilie’s sister is….?’ Who cares?
They so so so desperate want every man go be having an affair.
"My husband are an apple".
"He is trying to get fit for his other woman."
"My husband has taken the dog for a walk."
"He must be at an orgy cos he is a dog himself."

Am on a real roll this morning 
but if anyone ever needs a laugh then I would recommend the Style & Beauty board on MN. Genuinely great on days you're feeling down, it's unintentionally funny, the threads about shoes especially so, they have such such awful taste that I really don't think there's anything online that makes me laugh so much.

The outfits they wear are so frumpy.
The capsule wardrobe always starts with a trench coat….
Maybe call Womans Aid? They can help in abusive situations.
You and your child deserve better. LEAVE. NOW
Yet in my daily day to day life, I cannot remember the last time I saw someone wearing a trench coat.
I know they were a trend a few years ago but I'm not sure they are now
Those Lucy and Yak dungarees they’re obsessed with make them look like an art student from the 1970’s.
