Ugh, need advice.
I’ve posted here before about my MIL and every response i’ve gotten was agreeing with me saying she’s toxic and shouldn’t be in my daughters life if she isn’t going to change.
Well, I basically told her that we need to sit down and discuss whatever issues are going on WITHOUT my daughter being present and get on the same level of respect for each other and then if she can be consistent then she can be in my daughters life. she said she agrees. She hasn’t reached out since asking to get together.
We have a first birthday party to go to on saturday and my bf told me his mom wasn’t going to be there. well turns out she will be there. I don’t want to go. She never reached out to get together and it’s not fair that she gets to see my daughter only because we end up in the same place at the same time. she didn’t even come to our daughters first birthday party. I know that if we go on saturday and she gets to see her, she will have no motivation to want to get together and discuss our issues and she will get to see our daughter even though she hasn’t seen her in about 6 months and doesn’t ever ask to see her.
I don’t want to go and I don’t want my daughter going.
Thoughts?
IUI Monday!!
So today I went in for my routine bloodwork and ultrasound, and found out that I have three follicles at 17mm! Plus another two at 15mm. When leaving the clinic my FS said to take another dose of gonal-f and come back tomorrow to check to see how big they got and that we would do the iui on Wednesday. Well, after getting home, taking my gonal-f and going out to shovel snow (lol) I get a call saying that I am SURGING!!! I haven't ovulated on my own, or even come close to it in years...
My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
Before you have your first child, you have these grand ideas of what it will be like. There’s more slee...
Dad's FB Video!!
Did anyone see that video a dad posted on his daughters FB page? He saw a post she made where she bashed her parents and cursed them, called them lazy and told them they should pay her for stuff she did around the house... So he called her out on it and put the video on her page!! Sorry if I missed a post already about this already, but I just saw the video and IT WAS AWESOME!!! Hahahhaa!
“You look too young to be a mom!”
Or how about …
“You have a BABY? No! You look like a baby yourself!”👶
Oh wait, here’s a good one …
“Are you the nanny, ooor … ?”
“No, yeah I’m his mom,” I’d reply. “Yes, I am young,” I’d agree.
Considering I got pregnant straight out of college, I was certainly on the younger end of the parenting spectrum. (No one was more surprised than me, I assure you.) And yet, I wasn’t exactly a teen mom. I wasn’t juggling school courses and motherhood, like so many s...
I honestly wouldn’t go and I’d explain that to whoever. My MIL used to be real good for this.. we cut her off because she’s toxic as hell and she would use family gatherings and parties as her way to weasel herself into their lives and spend time with them. And then would clarify she’s their grandma because we always use her name and no grandma because she’s a poor excuse for a mother let alone a grandmother abd I don’t want my kids associating a “grandparent” with someone like her because that’s not a real grandparent. It got to the point we wouldn’t go or we would come later to avoid her. And then she got so bad into her own shit she stopped coming around everyone herself so it helped us out and we go to everything now and avoid her. I can’t stand that woman. When she’s sober, she can be awesome.. but when she’s not, LOOK OUT.
