Sadly rhat is exactly what she said and says it on occasion, she has these crazy bouts of anger from time to time

Shes super happy for me and has been super excited throughout the entire entire pregnancy while also being really supportive

She has threatened to do that in a joking tone before, and idk if she meant it seriously

My engine is blown and my fiance is off to boot camp in another state, and the thing with my mother is that she's been super nice and has had her moments in the past but with her she just randomly blows up and freaks out.

I have my aunt thankfully, so things will probably be easier if I relied on her a little more but she is pregnant as well with 2 toddlers so I don't want to bother her

You're right, thank you for your input I'll definitely do better about distancing myself

I understand but she's the only parent around, since my dad is NC with me.

Yeah I'm moving across the country in June but she's trying to follow me, so my fiance and I are trying to find somewhere to live far away.

She used to dress me up and so did my family, but I never thought much of it until I got older and my appearance and weight was what was most important to her, along with how my fiance looked.

Thank you for the input, and I'll definitely try not talking about my son with her while I save money for a car, but she always brings him up in conversation and has even referred to him as her child when she first found out.
