Mother in laws

Does anyone else have problems with over baring mother in laws? My babies not due until May but she's already trying to take over! I can see it's going to be a real problem as she treats her daughters children as her children and is always around them. I'm going to find it too much. My partner knows his mum can be slightly over baring but I don't want it to cause any problems between us Or upset the mother in law :/.

I have the opposite problem, which I think is just as bad. I posted on Facebook that I had my first appointment in October and I was nervous. In the comments section, she asked "omg, what's wrong?  Keep me posted!" So, I went to the appointment and the doctor couldn't find the heartbeat but said I might have fibroids that were hiding the sound. The ultrasound tech wasn't there that day so i had to make an appointment for a week later for an ultrasound to make sure everything was ok. I sent a text to her and my family explaining what waa going on because I just couldn't talk to anyone, I had so many emotions. She texted me back "k. When can you come bring me some money?" My husband called her and explained again that there may not be a heartbeat and she said that she understood that but she just wanted money. He told her I couldn't drive because I needed to relax. She came here instead and never mentioned anything. (This is HER GRANDCHILD mind you.) When we go see her, she never asks how the baby is. I showed her a picture from the ultrasound and she just said "I don't know what that is. It doesn't even look like a baby. It looks like an alien." She always smokes continuously even though my doctor said I'm not supposed to be near second hand smoke. I understand it's her house but I don't like going see her because of her ******, selfish attitude and because of the smoke. I don't know how to tell my husband that i don't like his mom and don't want to go to her house anymore, but I really can't stand the witch.

My Mom is like this... She can be easy too much sometimes. She moved in with my sister when she had her twins and she treats those girls like they are her own.  She wanted to move in with us when our baby was born but I told her she didn't have too.. She can come visit but she doesn't have to move in.  She would stress my husband and I out if she moved in and she would take over and do everything.

I don't have issues with my mother in law but I do with my father in law. He's a drunken *** that is way to grabby. And told me that if I ever get a pitbull (my favorite kind of dog) that my son would need a casket because the dog would kill the baby
