You're so right and this patience and insight could only be from God. My knuckle headed self would have said something a long time and ruined it all.
Now I have the blessing that she is leaving on absolute good terms, I never said a word nor charged her a red cent, my wife thinks I am the best ever because of my patience and understanding, and I can have peace in the house that only comes from God's grace and mercy.

Update - she left today.
I am actually a sad about this whole thing, how strange. I said goodbye to her last night, thanked her for all of her help and blessings, and told her that if she ever needs anything/etc that she better let us know.
I don't know how my wife will be handling this in the next coming days/weeks...
My MIL claims she will not come back till Feb for when our baby is (God willing) one year old.

It's great that you've had all the help.
Now comes the exciting time of discovery, where you really start to discover what parenthood is all about, without any props. The real deal.

This is true.. and will be ever more true for my wife. I work LONG hours and really just get home to shower and then sleep/repeat cycle. So I know it will be a very rude awakening for her.

It will be an adjustment, but your marriage will grow.
