Wow you girls are chatty just caught up not sure if I remember everying feeling rough have had a weird allergic reaction to something
Jen Im so sorry hun I hope Paul listens to you and understands how you are feeling. I wished my mum could of been with me as we'd planned there is no way in the world I would of wanted steves mum with me as lovely as she is I needed my mum. In fact I told steve that no one could see the baby untill my parents had seen him. Hes your baby and you need to decide who you see and when I think its ok to say we need time as a family just say you'll let people know when your ready for visitors. I know you must be feeling scared and vunrable we're all here if you need anything.
Nato it sounds like you've got you mil sussed shes toatlly out of order saying anything infront of weasy about you and that needs to be stopped I think you are in your right to say no to her having her on wed. My grandmother treated my mum really badly undermined her all the time she bought my brother a toy once after my mum said he couldnt have it she treated us all different my eldest brother was the most important because he was the first born male she didnt want to spend time with us really didnt play with us but wanted her pic taken with us and to be treated as the most important person. They ended up (my grandfather wasnt very nice either they are very cold people) telling my dad they would see him and us children but not my mum he of course said no so from 6 till about 26 I didnt see them which I have to say is no great loss and have only see them once or twice since then. Its interesting because of the way they treated my mum shes very aware of how she is as a mil I keep telling her not to worry as shes the oppsite of my grandparents shes loving, warm, supportive and welcoming. Shes different with Ben because Im her daugter if that makes sense she doesnt treat her grandchildren differently but with ben I think she feels she can do things with out checking when he was tiny she would pick him up but with my brothers children she would of asked first.
Vicky I cant believe your mil denied it all crazy women Im sorry Hero was upset but I think its good that your mil saw her reaction. I hope things become easier for you with her.
Round Im so exicted for you another disco boy will be here soon
glad your inlaws will be with you dont want you giving birth at the baseball match!!
Hoping going to pop over to journal to look at pics saw the ones on fb
Penny is such a cutie
Allie your mil sounds crazy as well is it because you weren't scottish just curious as a close friend of mine's fiance is scottish and his parents particularly his mum was very anti her it has taken a long time to win her round one of her issues was that Jo was english I think she has come round to it and is accepting of her but its taken a while.
I'm lucky as I've got an amazing mum and my mil is lovely she would never say anything the only thing is we dont see her that much despite her leaving fairly close but I send her regular emails to update her of how Bens doing with pics I let her know she welcome any time so hope she feels it. Steves parents are divorced we see his dad a bit more regularly he doesnt really do babies but is very sweet with Benjamin.
I think you feel so much more vunerable when you're pregnant
