In law rant

Ok, this is not directly about pregnancy. But I'm pregnant with my second baby, I have a two year old son. My in laws are so passive aggress with me and my husband doesn't see it. They will say things to my son like" dont look at mommy", " mommy doesn't want you." " you dont want mommy." They would hand off my son to my husband even though my son is crying for me yelling mommy, my father in law will walk around the house holding my son, but then doesn't want anything to do with him when he's got a poopy diaper. When I've tried to tell my husband he gets mad at me, I'm having huge anxiety about baby number 2. I'm thinking of all the come backs I will make and there pretty rude, but I feel like they are rude to me. Is anyone else going through this with in laws??

Awe, sorry to hear your stories. I guess I will have to be more assertive and make sure I don't get walked all over. I just fear that they are going to hog my baby, and make me feel like crap, When I'm the one that is giving birth. I feel like sometimes they think I too ruined my husbands life cause we were not married when I got pregnant with our first. But I will use the im the mommy not you!!

My boyfriend's mom is pretty difficult too. She wanted him to break up with me before she knew and now she's always bothering me about dates for the baby shower like she's the only one I have to plan it around. She wasn't satisfied with my progress so now she's throwing a second one with just his family and it's awkward cuz they don't like me but they're all really fake about it. They all think I ruined his life and I'm not good enough. My best advice to you is take charge. Make your hubby listen to you. Your feelings are valid. I let my boyfriend's mom get away with her shenanigans only because it's easier when she thinks she's in charge. But they are trying to set your kid against you and that is not okay! Stand up for yourself girl. You are the mommy. Not them.
