Is it wrong That I just blocked my MIL on my phone so she can't bother me right now? She's the only one that gets my BP…

I'm so sorry your dealing with that. If I were in your shoes I would say, "I know your excited about the baby coming and we will keep you informed when anything happens or any updates. I'm trying to rest up my body because the last few weeks of pregnancy are tough. If I don't call or text you right away I will get back to you,". Seems like your MIL needs a reality check

Your MIL is a brat! Geez! I think you were right to block her, you don't need stress and guilt on top of being at the end of your pregnancy. What a selfish old woman

That sucks. I don't even talk to my own mom everyday. (But my sister is like this) annoying and needy

Ask your OH to put a leash on her. Jesus.. that carry on would wreck my head.

Lol that's a bit much from a MIL!!! Does she have any other grandchildren??? OH dear I hope this is not her first grandchild...sounds like it might just get worse once baby arrives?

I have a close friend who had such an awful experience when she had her first child because her MIL went crazy and obsessive and manipulating that she doesn't want any more children -it truly was a traumatic experience for her...some MIL just don't have their own life?

The thing that blows my mind is that she's on vacation right now! I'm thinking "woman, relax. Enjoy your time where you're at."

We will inform parents when I go into labor. We live in another state because DH is military. My parents are flying out to visit first, then my MIL once my parents leave. So she has time.

And no pp, this will be her 5th grandchild. My SIL has 4 kids and my MIL does get to see them often because they live right down the road.

I just want peace and quiet before I don't have that anymore ? And in all honesty, my MIL has been stressing me out. I don't like overbearing people and right now, she's being one of them.

And DH has talked to her. A few times actually. But she just doesn't listen! She's also the type of person that has to have control in everything. So it's probably driving her insane that she can't control me or DH in giving her what she wants

I can totally relate. My MIL drove me so nuts in the hospital that when we have another child I will not be informing her until after the baby is born. She has no boundaries and no respect!

I've been ignoring her texts and invites to download some messenger app since Tuesday. So block away sister! Screw all that stress. And don't be stressed bc you blocked her. I do agree w pp, at some point you will need to tell her it's too much. Gotta keep that bp down. Good luck ?

Lol sounds similar to me. My mil texted this morning to tell me I haven't sent enough photos this week of our 20 month daughter and she wanted a new photo. Other than that the past 2 weeks have been daily countdowns, asking if baby moved or letting me know how anxious she is.

You are not being childish! That is insane! I can't believe she would be so rude and agrressive, especially after you've talked to her four days in a row?! She needs to get over herself fast. It isn't all about her. Good lord, bless you for having to deal with that!

I feel your pain!!! I'm this close to doing it to my whole family and my husbands. I set an induction date Wednesday and I am contemplating not telling anyone!!!!

I don't blame you. Mine frustrates me as well. Wait it out a couple days then unblock her again.

I have been with my husband for 11 years and for half I have had his mother blocked... she calls my husband enough throughout the day I never even knows she calls lol.... huge stress relief !!!

I changed my number a couple years ago and never told her the new one, never looked back since! Do what you gotta do lol

I don't think it's wrong that you blocked her at all! can you all tell her to back off? When she said "why the aloofness ?" Can't you say something like "why are you smothering me? I'm not aloof I just don't have time for your phone calls everyday."

You gals definitely make me feel better about how I handle things sometimes! She's just been overbearing and I didn't know what else to do. She's told be before that I'm "socially unacceptable" in what I say sometimes, but I feel like she needs to take a look at herself and see how she can be sometimes.

OMG. I would lose it. That sucks. You need to ha e your husband talk to her. That's seriously out of control.

BLOCK party lol I would've blocked her too.

? block party! I like that

I have done the block trick for the last 6 months and I've not been more stress free in the last 12 years. I'm totally for turning down the volume on destructive narcissistic behaviour ????...

Temk- yes!!! I had a stress free day today. Although she did call DH and told him she feels like we are hiding something from her because we don't update her on if I'm having contractions yet or not. Ummm.... i will update when there is something to update with! So far, I've got nothing! No aches or pains. No BH or contractions. Mucus plug still intact. DH told her to chill out ?
