Partner asking for me to move in with his family
Hi ladies! I am a FTM and I’m currently in the trenches of my third semester. My partner and I are looking for leases currently, and he offered that I move into a new space with his family (mom, brother sister) so that they can be present during my postpartum phase. I’m not particularly close with them and I’m just wondering if any mommies have any advices or thoughts!

Well, it can be tricky. I think it mostly depends on what kind of bonding you have with his side of family, and you know enough that you’ll be comfortable with them or not, but also every human being is different, and they have different habits and likes in dislikes, so they may not match with yours.
And also postpartum time shouldn’t be a experimental time, so you guys should talk about it in detail when it comes to boundaries with the other people around you when you are with your baby and what is expected out of you, what is expected out of them and your partner, so that you guys are clear . And as I am also approaching my third trimester right now, I feel like during my postpartum time, I know I’m going to be a mess, so I would want people to just support me without any additional advices. Just be there for me as much as they can, and that’s it so if they can do that, wonderful
I think it could be nice. Especially if yall are trying to save money. And to get help from them would be really nice pp
