@Ellie oh he does tell them to ask me themselves yet they just don’t. The only communication with me is telling me all the horrible things that could happen and giving me massive anxiety fully knowing we’ve had losses… knowing in between scans I worry… they also decided to announce my pregnancy on social media before we’d told anyone so that was a fun argument
That is crazy, I’m so sorry you’re having to go through that… have you spoken to them about how they make you feel? I definitely don’t think you’re overreacting
@Rebecca everything I say is answered with “well I’m allowed to be excited this is my first grandchild” like my excitement and my requests for my first born child means nothing
God I can’t imagine how you feel… especially when ur so emotionally vulnerable atm. Does ur husband support you after how they make you feel?x
I completely understand what you are going through, my MIL acts the same way. You are not wrong to feel the way you do. I think this is just one of those things that time will show her whats really going to happen. Just remember, you are the one in control, not her.
@Rebecca he does and he argues with them a fair bit because of it which in turn makes me feel guilty as anything but their feelings are not my fault nor my concern when it comes to my baby
@Karina Thankyou! I’m sorry you’re going through this too!
Have you spoken to your husband about this? If they're asking him he could simply say to them "ask her yourself". At the end of the day you should be a team and he should be supporting you and not pandering to them if it's upsetting you. And also 17 weeks pregnant is a bit early to be setting up a nursery.
