future grandparents

I need some advice. I asked the bfs mom a few weeks ago about a baby shower and she blew it off. Now when I'm not around one night she talked to him and felt bombarded but she said she they don't have anyone to come. Now she's complaining because we bought all the big stuff ourselves. Is there anything I can do so she will talk about things when I'm not around and not avoid it until the bf is by her alone? Its not like I'm brand new to the picture its been 2 1/2 years.

ive been through the exact same thing, the only thing you can do is put your foot down and say so!!! If you want the house say you want it and thats that! I had to stand up for myself to be heard.
Your partner needs to understand this is your life too and it is both your decisions not his parents. He needs to stop asking them.

Good luck xx

I've talked to him about it a few times cause it happens a lot. We are even looking to buy a house before the baby gets here and found one we both like and had his dad go look at and he said no. We will agree on something but once he talks to his parents its like I have no say anymore and I get out number.

she will come round give her time to her its still her baby even thow hes grown up its hard for some mums to let go. try talking to your partner about how you feel and see what he says. then just dont beat aboutthe bush tell her how you feel. dont keep it inside till you exsplode be straight she will either like it or not. i hope it goes well for you please let me no how you get on.
