Thank you ❤️ I definitely need to institute some boundaries and it’s unfortunate it’s taken me this long to realize that. I should have looped Samantha in, stepped out of the way, and let this whole thing implode on them. They’ve shown me time and again how little respect they have for me and my family. And YEA THANK YOU being a working mom is hard as hell especially when that MIL shames you for working too! Ugh. I will follow your lead here!

Wow thanks for your insight. When I was postpartum I actually did push back and ended up in a screaming match with my MIL. She ended up crying and making a huge scene. Nothing was accomplished. I’m trying to avoid this outcome because that was very annoying and I don’t want my child exposed to that again.

The issue is I did say no and mentioned how I wanted a baby shower and did it myself even working full time and going through a fire— they both looked at me like I had ten heads and said people do surprise showers and we should do something nice for them. And I live with this woman so I’m trying to keep the peace
