** 🚨RANT ALERT 🚨 **
So it was my Husbands birthday yesterday and I wanted it to be a relaxed day for him because he has such stressful days at work and weekends are always so busy catching up on errands. He's the most amazing Husband and Father, I couldn't have asked for someone better. I thought it would be a good idea for us to spend some time with his family so we planned to have dinner there. I thought they would appreciate it too as they always complain that we don't go over enough. (Stupid of me to plan such a thing knowing there's a 99.9% chance of it being a horrible time). Little did they appreciate anything!! Instead it was such a waste of our evening!! All they did was lecture my Husband and demand me to do things their way with my child!! Makes me so freakin' angry!! My FIL thinks he knows everything, even though he was never there for his children when they were growing up. Usually I just put up with his garbage but yesterday I went to pick my 6 months son up to change his nappy when my FIL snatched him off me. I told him I need to change his nappy and he turned around and goes to me "no it's okay". Argh wdf (sorry about my language) but what the hell is he on about that I don't need to change his nappy it was practically full!!!! Even when my son is exhausted and wants to sleep they don't let me put him to sleep until he's all cranky. Then my MIL started with her indirect hurtful comments about me not being a good enough mother and how I could leave my son with her. Ugh I don't get it I don't know if it's me because I'm pregnant and all hormonal or if my in laws are just idiots! My Husband notices everything they do and he constantly tells them to stop but it's like it goes in one way and out the other. I came home and cried my eyes out in the bathroom because I didn't want my Husband seeing me cry on his birthday. 😭
aw poor you, thats a good idea you know. My mother in law use to get happy if my husband disagreed with me infront of her lol. Weird women
@firsttimemummy86, I have idea, I a really told my husband not to be lovey dovey in front of her 😩 xx
lol these mothers are weird how can you he jealous of your own sons happiness!
@firsttimemummy86, I totally agree with you! I see how much my Husband tries to make things better and easier for me and his family don't help one bit. He says his mum is jealous of me because he treats me better than her Husband treats her. But I don't get how that's my fault and why she has to make my life hell 😕 xx
an most in laws are evil and stupid. Its sad really, stay away from them as much as you can. I feel bad for our husbands/partners they get so worked up and theres not much they can do.
horrible. just ignore and avoid them as much as possible. id warn them about their behavior in front of your child aswell!!! x
@apunini, Believe me I've done that so many times over the years and it's just become worse! My FIL is the most vile person ever!! If he could or he wishes he had the power to he would get his son to divorce me. That's the type of people they are xx
my inlaws are actually quit nice. but i think because i always made sure they know they cant cross a line with me. when i was pregnant and they had some friends and family over and everyone got a bit drunk and sarted telling me u gotta do this and that blablbal i said straight away in front of everyone that i dont want to hear anymore comments about how i should raise my child as im the one whos in charge and i wont ever ever tolerate any of that. (im quit inpulsive and very honest to people, so if they say something i dont like i tell them straight away) since then they never said anything. (i also said the same to my parents)x
@lauren1996, awww thanks Hun that's so sweet of you. Same goes for you, if you ever want to rant and let it out 😂 xxx
Ahah!! I think everyone's in laws irritate a lot of us ahah!!@mullika91, but I'm always here if you want a chat because I understand how your feeling!👌xxx
@lauren1996, LOL! I'm so glad I wrote this post! Makes me so sane knowing you ladies feel the same 😂😂😂 xxx
Ahha!! My blood boils too when I hear her name or voice bugs the f**k outta me aha!!@mullika91, 😂xx
@apunini, when I used to live with them I used to argue 24/7 now I just don't have the energy. Even when we would argue we would all be screaming and nothing ever got sorted everything stayed the same. Now I just think people like them are just such waste of time! My Husband is such a blessing if I didn't have him I'd do crazy I don't know what I'd do. Actually I do I'd take my son and leave and never look back! xxxx
@lauren1996, LOL I ask myself the same thing every single day! It's definitely made my relationship with my Husband a million times better and now he sees exactly how his family are. It was the worst 4 years of my life. Lol someone just has to mention them and my blood boils 😣 xx
I dunno how you could've lived with them for 4 years!!!!
I can't be in the same room as her no longer than an hour!! It frys my nut!! Just her voice really annoys me!! @mullika91, xxx
Thank you Hun @happychamp16, your so kind. By the way my son is growing up I know I must be doing something right. I don't think they will ever back off they're just there interfering type of people. All their kids are married and they can't let go of them they cause trouble in all of the marriages. They such miserable people even their marriage is garbage 😣 xx
I@lauren1996, I lived with my in laws for 4 years and they treated me so badly. When I found out I was pregnant with my son the first thing I did was move out. Ever since they've been trying to meddle in my marriage. They whisper rubbish into my Husbands ear trying to get him to treat me bad. I'm lucky to have a Husband who doesn't listen 😣. Your MIL sounds just like mine!! When I was living with them we would argue all the time and we'd be screaming at each other like crazy but nothing has ever changed. Now I just don't have the energy. I know what you mean I never thought I'd ever up with in laws like this!!! 😣 xx
if i were u id never put up with that crap and tell them straight away that they beed to respect u. yur his mom and theres no one with more authority over your child than you and your husband! you need to be strong and show them that they need to respect you!!xxxx
I dont think your crazy or over the top, they sound sly and really irritating! I hate people coming round unannounced its much more polite to check im at home and not busy before they come round. And they definatly need to back off with the parenting tips and trying to make you feel your not a good mother x
@mullika91, reminds me of my MIL! I can't stand her she turns up when she wants she even had a key for my old house before and did let herself in ect, she tried telling me what to do with my little boy Christmas time and I lost it with her I was screaming in her face! I totally lost it, we are on civil terms now, but if she texts or rings I ignore if she hints to my OH that she's coming around I go out!! She never sees McKenzie but she's always asking to take him up hers and have him!! He's hardly seen her because she's too busy with work!! But I told her I didn't want him to stay up there because of routine but she was begging! Does my nutting wish you could choose your inlaws😫@mullika91, xx
@happychamp16, the thing is they do these things in such a way that it sounds like I'm going crazy or being over the top. They're such sly people it drives me crazy! Currently no one knows about me being pregnant and tbh I'm not even looking forward to telling anyone because I know as soon as they know they'll say to leave my son with them "so you can rest" 😒 xx
@sara-lou, unpleasant is such an understatement! They just turn up to my house whenever they feel like it so my Husband told them to message me first. Which really annoyed them because they think because it's their son they should have a key to the house be aloud in and out as they wish! When ever they message I totally ignore it 😒 xx
Dont blame you at all for feeling like that @mullika91 i got annoyed reading that for you! x
@firsttimemummy86, OMG sounds just like my weirdo MIL!! It's like they get some crazy satisfaction out of it. Since then my Husband and I never ever ever show them when we've fallen out xx
