Dear MIMsters: Are There Any Implications to this Favour MIL is Asking Me To Do?
I need to know if there are any implications doing this favour the my mother-in-law is asking me for.
My MIL’s younger sister adopted a day old child who is now a week old while I gave birth 2 days ago.
These people have never treated me properly as a daughter in-law as they never wanted me to be part of their family. They wanted their son to marry someone else.
My MIL never regarded my children as her grand-children.

Now, the same MIL is seeking my assistance for a huge favour. She has asked me to wet nurse her sister’s one week old baby. This means that as a nursing mother, I have to breastfeed my baby and the other baby too.
I don’t know if this is medically advisable and what implications or consequences this could have. Breastfeeding is a tedious work for a baby, let alone two. I am thinking of telling them to formula feed the baby instead.
Am I wrong? This family hates me very much and I guess they just want to make a case out of it to find an opportunity to call me names.

Please advice me on how I can best handle this?
My sister don’t kill yourself. If you agree they will hate you and if you don’t agree they will still hate you. So don’t just agree.
Whatever decision you take won’t make them hate you any less, they will only pretend to love you for the favor you are rendering. Please advice them to formula feed the baby. Do not put yourself in a situation you might end up regretting.
If u are medically and mentally fit for d task, i’ll implore u to help d innocent child, not ur mother-in-law or her sister, and God will reward u for it.
Help d innocent child for God sake, for for ur MIL or her sister. God shall reward u abundantly
They hate you already and this huge favor ain’t gonna change anything. They should go and get formula.
But why will someone go through the trouble of adopting a child and then be unable to do the first and most basic act for the child?
Why can’t she feed the child herself even if it is formula feeding?
I smell a rat.
What is your husband’s opinion?
Your doing this will not make them like you, don’t let any one pressure you into something you may not want to do. However, if u decide to do it, you are not doing it for your MIL but for the baby. This decision is entirely up to u.
Please do not agree and don’t be blackmailed with the preciousness of the little child,he or she will be fine,let them formula feed the baby
hmmmmn
Please don’t accept breastfeeding that baby.just tell them to formula feed him or her.you don’t know they might be up to something. It won’t make them hate you less.
Did they not have plan for the baby before adopting. Please don’t engage yourself for something you may regret later because you want to please someone. Say NO and let your husband know about it. Some people sef
