So my mother in law lives in Idaho & we live in Utah. We use to go down once a month or so before I got pregnant. She does not have a car and the past couple of times she has wanted to come down my sister in law has had to go get her. She was down here 2weeks ago & we took her back, well on the drive back I swelled up really bad and had to be rushed to l&d my doctor told me do not travel to far sense my daughter is suppose to be here soon, it's not to good. Well today my husband's step mom comes over asking why we never do anything for his mom its always his sister. So obviously there talking about us ! I don't know if it is just my hormones or what. But I want to call his sister and tell her what the hell ?but idk if it will start a huge fight,but at this point I really don't care if it does.

I been with my hubby for about 10 yrs. I cant stand his family except for his sister she's awesome!  I've been in battles with them for the last 3 yrs. Deleted them all off fb just because they want to be nosey. My hubby had to tell his family that he never leaving me and it's our kids over them. Again good luck!

Hey mamma I live in utah too! So hey! Anyways they obviously don't have you or the babies best interest at heart so I would try to communicate with them as little as possible so it doesn't cause you any unneeded stress. At until you are comfortable with having them around you and your baby. And let your hubby know this is stressing you out he is your partner and you should have each others backs. Good luck with your little girl and this little bump in the road.

She is a growm women if she wants to make trips she can figure out how to buy a car or take the bus? It's not your responsibility. Your husband has his own family now. She can't be the priority.

Some families just need constant drama to be happy. Seriously if nothing is wrong they'll cause problems just because they don't know what to do if there's no drama. I would speak my mind, but don't count on anything to change. As long as your husband is on your side I'd be satisfied.

Ps I live in Utah too! You're the only other mommy I've seen on here from Utah, so hi.

Thanks girl. His family hates me we've been married over 2 years and I am almost to my 9 months of pregnancy and they still try to tell him to leave me and the baby. I have never done anything to him or them, they just don't like that he can't get up & do what ever they say anymore. But I've never said anything to any of them before, but I'm just tired of it now.

Its obviously not about the mom anymore. Its you your hubby and new baby now. I wouldn't worry about it. They cant seem to understand the importance of you and babys health. But hey if it still brothers you bring it up and let them know how you really feel. Good luck girly.
