MIL troubles!

Hey everyone! Long story short I've been having troubles with my MIL. Btw I'm 25 and due today with my first son! :)  I deleted my Facebook account a little over a week ago because of the way I have been feeling the past few weeks.  Very sad and sore all the time! I cried everyday the last two weeks and actually felt really depressed.  On Thursday my two friends realized I had withdrawn from everything and surprised me with pizza, chocolates, flowers etc to make me feel better.  Finally I decided to activate my Facebook again and thank them for being so awesome and thoughtful to me! Well this opened a huge can of worms! My MIL called my hubby yelling at him because she's so happy that I have two supportive people in my whole life that have helped me.  Basically she's mad that I didn't thank her on Facebook with that post!  I have thanked her for every single thing she has done for me, hubby, and baby so far. It's not like I am not appreciative and grateful! She's also mad because I didn't "like" her statuses for the last week, well sorry lady, I didn't have Facebook for the last week and SHEs the one who didn't notice that! Anyway, how to deal with this? especially with my little man so close to being here!

Ignore her!! You cannot please everyone trust me wen I hear about ur MIL, mine is way worse then that. All that she knows is compare and make me miserable say hurtful things. Sometimes I used to cry thinking where have I ended up , u need to be strong gal just don care. Your priority right now is your baby and your health . Don let her ruin your happiness . I know it's tough but u have to be strong. Even if she speaks anything justddon't care. Stay positive!! It's just how I ve been
