Pushy People..

I Have a very large family and so does my fiancé. They have all been pushing stuff on me and no matter how many times I say no they keep doing it. I am so stressed that I am bleeding and don't know how to get them all off my back. The worst is his friends wife who is also pregnant and telling me what I can and can't do. I don't know how to tell them it's my little one not theirs without making anyone mad or hurting anyone feelings. Does anyone know how I can get these people off my back?

Lol, yeah they like to seem as if they know it all or that their way is best, but it's not always the case. Maybe your fiance can just give them a hint to back down a little? I hope things work out for you. (:

Defend yourself with facts. Tell then what your doctor.advised. Show them what the baby book and information packets from the hospital told you. Just look up evidence for why or why not something would be safe in your pregnancy, and find evidence to support your decisions.

Lol ok. I am 16 weeks and they get so mad over little things. Like not drinking milk and drinking z up and sprite through out the day along with water to calm my stomach.

My bf family is super pushy! There have been times where I bawled like a baby because I felt like I had to please them and do everything their way or they would hate me. Luckily my bf is really helpful and tells his family to calm down and tells them we are fine and to back off of me. Now that I'm pretty late in my pregnancy they won't really tell me things unless I ask. And you can have a pop...so defend your rights lol.

I have tried that but his mom shows up at our house which is a half hour away to see if I am doing what she told me to. If I drink coffee or a pop and he sees it I get yelled at for a half hour. I can't just shut her out but I need her to give me room
