I'm loosing my mind. my mil keeps asking if I have got stuff set up yet and if I need anything else for the baby. I keep telling her no I have everything. and that no I don't have certain things set up because I just took maternity leave last week. and even though I tell her I have everything she keeps asking If i want to go get more last minute things for the baby. ( and she calls my son by a nickname I hate!!) I don't get how she doesn't understand that I don't need anything else

Maybe she just doesn't see that. I have taken a stance where if he starts talking about baby stuff that I just say, yes, we reaserched it, and if we need any help I will let you know. This is their first grandchild, so they are super stoked. You can also tell your husband to have a talk with her to back off a little.

@sam.g, I think I hate it so much is because I'm 19 and whenever she over helps I feel like she thinks I don't know what my son needs or that I can't get it myself. her daughter had a baby when she was 23 and the daughter needed lots of help with buying things. and I am more stable with a good job. and so for me I feel like she thinks just because her daughter needed so much help I need it to! and I don't I'm far more mature than her daughter

This is exactly how my father in law is. I am only 15 weeks and he is telling me that I need a backwards facing car seat (duh, I know) and all this and that. Listen, old man, I am freaking 33 years old, I am perfectly capable of doing this mom thing without you treating me like a complete idiot.

@supermommy31082, thanks and I know she is excited but I feel like she is overbearing. I want a chance to be a mom. I know I will need help to learn everything but I also I have my mom and it hunk she forgets that
