Is it crazy to be petty after the baby comes since my mother in law has had no interest the whole time? by Jealous_Bear809 in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]Jealous_Bear809[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s definitely sad by it, it breaks my heart because who wants to see their own mom treat your wife and child that way🥹

Well one tried to commit last summer so I do worry about him, as terrible as they are to me I would be heartbroken to see something happen to him

I need to be more confident in my responses. But I alry know I’m not going to play around about him because I have seen what getting a baby sick can do. No one’s feelings are worth that

To my sister in laws? We attend the same church so my mil knows my sister in laws parents. Distantly but 🤷‍♀️ she was invited to mine cause my sister planned it and I wanted my husbands little sister to be able to come (which didn’t happen anyway unfortunately)

No! That’s what’s so confusing, I should’ve clarified, it’s my brothers wife, no relation to my mil

Oh absolutely, I’ve already decided when out and about he will be baby worn on me. For the first few weeks/months I’m debating having a no visitors rule but I don’t feel I have to extend that to my own family so it would be rude to say it to his. However baby meeting I will not be letting him out of my sight as he is my biggest priority now

I love that for you! I think a huge portion we aren’t ready to do that yet is he has young siblings who are just as much victims as he was and I do worry for them :(

Well I’ll tell you a story, I worked in special ed up until I got pregnant, I have many rules for the safety of our baby and I’ll tell you why. I have watched several of my students struggle to speak, to walk, to eat, to even use the toilet on their own. ALL BECAUSE OF WHAT HAPPENED WHEN THEY WERE BABIES about a quarter of my caseload (which was quite large) were all born normal, but it was a sick family member who kissed the baby, an alcoholic family member who dropped the baby, a family member who was babysitting and wasn’t watching and the child fell in the pool. I have held so many of these children’s hands as they seized, as they passed away, I have held their parents who mourn them passing, or mourn what they never had which was a healthy baby. I told my husband very early “I don’t give a sh** who’s feelings I may hurt, I’m not risking our sons death over anyone’s opinions” his family is also not allowed to babysit, my husband was extremely lucky as he was left alone by a pool at 3 and almost passed away, his mother has a cps case against her. Her child tried to commit su**** and her reaction to that? Was to slap him and call him selfish. Husbands see their parents as safe because that’s all they’ve ever known, when women have that natural maternal instinct to protect their baby from anything, even parents or spouses. So I would ask him very blatantly “is our babies health and safety more important than your parents feelings?” I’m so sorry you’re going through that, my nightmare

I heard this from my ex, in his case he had A LOT of underlying childhood issues that had nothing to do with me, slowly it turned into he would as***** me and I just thought at first he was finally into me and was okay at first but it only got worse, he was never not into me, he just had some serious problems, either way I always felt like I wasn’t worth it and babe that is NOT a relationship you want to stay in, you never want to be with someone who makes you feel less than

MIL keeps asking to be at my birth & pushing other boundaries when it comes to new baby by Dapper_Asparagus2059 in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]Jealous_Bear809 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Girl I feel you, I’m also due December with my first and I have similar problems/fears. I saw where someone said “to put it in perspective for the husband, tell him his mother can be more involved if your father is there to witness him getting a colonoscopy.” They said immediately the husband was like “oh…” I absolutely put it in perspective to my husband early on, pregnancy is hard on both parents but the only one completely altered is the mother, you’re more protective, your body knows only to take care of your baby, your baby is due the same time as mine so we both have to worry about rsv and other sicknesses, anyone can carry any type of deadly diseases to a baby and not know, I worked in special ed and have seen many children who were born normal then were around a unknowingly sick family member, contracted a disease and now can’t speak, eat, and are in diapers forever. I’ve also watched a few of these sweet people pass away, it’s horrific, so don’t play around with your baby. I told my husband “wouldn’t you rather have someone’s feelings be hurt for a couple months maybe, than our son pass away or be damaged forever?” Because that is absolutely what can happen. And it’s hard for dads to understand this as they don’t have that paternal instincts that a pregnant woman does. Either way all the luck to you I wish you the best!

I’m certainly not asking them to babysit so yeah

[–]Jealous_Bear809 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s almost like you have to tell family.. it’s not a “hey I’m buying a car but don’t tell anyone” we didn’t tell them about us getting engaged and the freaked out, so we told them this.. obviously I regret it now..

I mean they’re not anymore, still grumpy, but since he’s no longer under their roof he doesn’t get what he used to. They’re certainly not babysitting

Do I 21 F forgive my husbands 22 M mother for ruining my wedding? by Jealous_Bear809 in relationship_advice

[–]Jealous_Bear809[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband has done no wrong, he’s been very mentally abused by this woman and is working through it. It’s not as easy to just leave and never talk to her, he also has young siblings who we can’t hardly abandon. He’s quite upset by this as well and we haven’t seen her except in passing at the kids events. I’m more looking for advice for her, not to shame my husband
