Moving in with MIL

This is just a long vent. My partner & I are in a horrible financial situation. Unfortunately I got hit with loans that were more than our rent & I have tried countlessly to try & work something out but they won’t work with me. My partner can’t pay for the rent himself & help pay baby expenses. So his family said we could move in with them. I wasn’t fully comfortable with it but agreed. I like his family & all. But now that we moved in, I feel like this was such a huge mistake. I work from home & so does she. The dad offered to set up his man cave so I had my office in there but the mom is furious because she wants it. We’re constantly being told we can have our own space but then told they already set up stuff so we can’t. They also are taking my furniture. They took my kitchen stuff, they are trying to use my book shelves for their own stuff & my dresser. I’ve voiced it’s mine. But it hasn’t stopped. It’s day one & it’s making me depressed cause idk how long we are stuck here. Basically I’d need a raise or new job & somehow figure out a way to work around my loans. I’m due in June & won’t see a raise before then nor will I be able to get a new job being 7 months pregnant.

Are these loans for school?

Unfortunately as you moved in together, it's their house their rules. That's the hard part about moving into someone else's place!
Think about all the possible support you might get when your baby is born! Try to go with the flow. I am also quite emotional during pregnancy so completely understand your anger towards it all

yes they are. They were through a private loan company.
