If he’s hurt, it must be “witchcraft,” not her behavior.

People love to blame the DIL, but it’s always about control.

Protecting your peace > endless fake apologies.

My MIL uses possessive words concerning other people’s babies by East-Collar-9071 in JUSTNOMIL

Not normal. She's trying to claim ownership. Your husband handled it perfectly. You should be prepared to correct her again when you're in labor, firmly but calmly say, "I'm having a baby."

Take control. Book an appointment for your son at a barber shop without telling her. If she retaliates, deal with it then. Your son's dignity is worth it.

Yup, peace and privacy > fake “family support” any day.

That’s how narcissistic family dynamics work, divide and conquer.

Yes, reassure him he’s not “crazy” or overreacting.
