*MIL RANT ALERT*
Do not read if don't wanna read drama! Haha.
Ok, so yesterday we were talking with MIL about when my pains start and calling them with enough time. We were on speaker and hubby heard it all... I said that I was planning on staying home 'till contractions got really close, so I didn't have to be around the hospital too much during my first stage of labor. And she said: "You know, you can go to the hospital, not register and just walk around the hospital until you are ready. You don't want to start pushing while home" I replied:"I would never wait that long. And It would be A LITTLE bit awkward to be randomly walking around the entrance in pain, and hey, what if I feel like screaming, I'd scare a lot of people" THEN SHE STARTED WITH HER CONDESCENDING/COMPARING STUFF: "I never screamed once with all my babies, I didn't think the pain was hard enough to even have to raise my voice, I don't really understand why some ladies make such a big deal with everything." UGH!!!! Yes, I get it!! All her 3 kids were given to her by an angel while she was freaking sleeping and she just said: "Uh, why thank you!" and she had her kid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Grr! I then went on saying:"Well, maybe not proper screaming, but too uncomfortable for people to see you, I remember my sister with her first one, she raised her voice a little" and then my MIL starting cracking up and said:", really? She haaaad to do it, huh? Weird!" Like my sister was this little wimp! She was in effin labor for 2 whole days! She was in pain, she was in her right to do so! I had to finish it up or I would of said something real bad, so I just said:"Hey, that's why only Chris is going to be in the delivery room, because if I feel the need to scream, I will."
I mean, who is she? Is she really that insecure that needs to belittle everybody else comparing them with her own superwoman powers of not ever feeling pain, or need of knowing because you are in doubt? I know she tries to prove her husband she is the best our there, but man... do it somewhere where it wont affect family ties! This is why she won a spot in the waiting room and not in there with me!
I really really really hope husband doesn't start with any of the crap he has heard from her and expect little miss sunshine while passing a watermelon threw my vagina! I told my husband yesterday that I know there must be an effort to be calm and find that zone where I'll be okay with pain, but man, knowing me, I'll probably even cuss a little while finding it!
I just wish she was nice always
she goes from super nice to super @ss!
Sorry for the rant!!
