Sorry in advance for the long rant post. My SO's mother is an older woman with a few medical issues, and I understand that she need some help doing things, but it's like as soon as my SO leaves for work, she automatically goes completely helpless and wants me to do EVERYTHING for her, she won't let me relax at all, I can't even watch one 30 minute TV show without her interrupting me wanting me to do something. She treats me like I'm her own personal slave and then if I tell her to wait or that I'm not feeling good and don't want to get up right then, she throws a fit and curses me and calls me names. I'm a high risk pregnancy and not supposed to do too much or stress at all and she is really starting to get to me. I've told my SO how I feel but that's his mom so he won't put her in a nursing home :/ I just feel like I'm losing my mind. If she thinks it will be like this when the baby comes she is in for a rude awakening.
I understand where your coming from, and I do love her and I try to do every single thing she asks me to do, but I'm supposed to be on bedrest and If I start bleeding I'm not supposed to move at all to do anything because my placenta could pull away completely and I could lose the baby, and she knows this, we have both told her, but if I tell her that I'm not feeling well and I can't get up at the moment, she will sit there and scream at me and cuss me like a dog and call me names and tell me how lazy and worthless I am.. That's what really gets to me because she knows that I'm having a really difficult pregnancy. @nickandtressa8994
Oh no I read what you said and I'm sorry about that. But maybe she just wants to see you and really doesn't hate you. I'm not trying to be rude just trying to maybe get you to see it from a positive point a view versus the negative one it seems like you put on here. We can't get angry with our elders and then put it on the internet because who knows maybe I'm a couple years your going to look back on this and think totally differently.
I do help her all the time. I'm sorry that my placenta is literally separating from my uterus and I could lose my baby at ANY MOMENT and sometimes I'm hurting and I don't want to get up. I'm not mean to her, when my SO is home, she literally does everything herself, she goes to the bathroom, she gets her own food and drinks, she does everything. It's only when he leaves that she sits in her room and absolutely Will NOT get up to do anything. And it's all because she hates me and hates that her son is with me even though I do bend to her every need. But I am pregnant and I do get tired and I do get sick sometimes.. So honestly, I think you are the rude one here, and maybe you should have read where I said I was high risk. I'm on bedrest as is it.. Have a good day. @nickandtressa8994
I think this is the rudest thing I have ever read. That is your mother in law. Would you treat your mother the same way? I am a CNA also and no matter what you help however you can. I still work and will continue to work throughout my pregnancy and if my mother in law was elderly or even lived with us for that matter I would try to tend to her every need. When you get older don't you want someone caring for you? Sorry I just had to put that out there.
I feel for you but your SO should really tall to her because it's his kid in your belly and I'm sure he wouldn't want anything to happen to the little one
I know she does. She drives me crazy. It makes me want to leave. @emkasting @aidenlunas_mommy
Have you talked to your SO about how she is treating you? You shouldn't be stressed like this while pregnant
See.. she has threatened to call the police for elderly neglect on me before because she made me so mad that I told her i know she can do these things, she does them when Don is home, so she can fucking do them when he leaves.. I'm a CNA so I know how easy it is to catch an elderly abuse/neglect charge. And she's a great liar.
Now that I understand. If I were you I'd sit down with her and you SO and talk. Talking always is the best
