I’m Sorry your going through this but I know how it feels my mum Is the same . She’s never happy for me and curses anything good I do in life . When I past my driving test instead of congratulating me she opened the door and said come get ur f*ing kids . When I lost my job and made redundant I got a job on a burger van to provide for my family until I could find something eles she said “ ur degrading urself ain’t u “ She’s always been all my brothers me being the only girl I feel she resents me for some reason il never understand why 😔 I found myself trying to buy her love for years and had to cut ties recently because nothing was ever good enough Maybe you should do the same for your own inner peace but do not cancel your baby shower that is your day 🩷
honestly you don't even need decorations. don't give her the satisfaction of knowing that she was the reason you canceled your shower. do what you can and enjoy your day 🩷 oh and block your mom for a while
I stoped talking to my bio mom from my freshman year in high school all the way up to my graduation bc this was how she treated me!! And when I let her back in she respected me in a new way!! It’s hard to cut off the ones we love even after they have hurt us over and over but sometimes it’s a lesson they need to learn!! You’re a strong woman don’t take no crap and live your life to the fullest even if the ones that should support you don’t…. Don’t let that stop you!! You are the only person that will be at the beginning of your life and the end you of your life so take care of you first in order to succeed!! That’s all your babies need is a mom taking care of herself so she can care for them!! Screw a grandma that don’t want the best for them!! Speaking for all moms with crappy bio moms! WE ARE PROUD OF YOU FOR YOUR STRENGTH AND YOUR NOT ALONE!!!!
@Sarah I really didn’t want to give her the satisfaction of having to cancel my baby shower. But I have a very significant tailbone injury after falling down the stairs a few weeks ago. My baby shower is supposed to be today and I wouldn’t have been able to manage properly setting up the festivities with two toddlers running around. To add further salt to injury, it’s been snowing since yesterday and will snow all day today. So it just seems best to cancel and return the decorations so I can recoup the money.
when people become toxic family or not, you should definitely distance yourself for your sake, your mental health especially being that your pregnant!! if you want help with your baby shower, message me I’m here to help love. I hope your ok and I hope you continue choosing yourself and your baby xx
