My MIL is skeeving me out...

This may be weird to some, especially if you don't believe in the psychic type people, but I need to vent and get my anxiety out.

So on Friday, DH, Lexi and I went grocery shopping at Walmart, so DH asked if we could look at the baby section. I said sure why not, went and started talking about what should we do this upcoming cycle since I finished my 3rd week of the patch yesterday. We came to the agreement that we definitely stop all contraceptives and start TTC. Yay, I'm excited, so is he, and we asked Lexi how she would feel to be a big sister. She's ecstatic which makes everything even better.

So as we are walking around, DH takes a picture of Lexi wearing a Santa hat that has a tiara on it that she wants us to buy. He sends it to his mom.

A few minutes later, she calls. Apparently she was sleeping and she had a dream that I had a belly and that we need to be careful (she didn't know we were talking about TTCing). DH told her we were planning. She said congratulations and hung up the phone. This seriously skeeved me out, causing me to seriously have second thoughts. I know my anxiety got in the way of that, especially since we do not get along and  everything about her just drives me up a wall.

This isn't the first time that she's had dreams about stuff like this. She's had a dream about DH getting seriously injured. She had a dream the night before DH went to her and told her we were expecting the first time. She is recently had a dream saying we are going to have twins (yeah, I highly doubt that one) and another dream saying we will have a chunky boy.

Sorry it got long. I just really needed to vent. I hate it when she does that.

Re: My MIL is skeeving me out...

  • I'm sorry. This is why I said it is a tough situation because even though you don't have a relationship with her when your DH does it will lead back to you. I can see how what she said would freak you out but I would try not to let it get to you. I know you said she has had dreams like this before...did they lead to anything then?

    My mom has had dreams that I was pregnant since I had Ava Nichol and I think itwas just subconsciously hoping for aanother grand baby.

  • She did have a dream when my DH's sister got pregnant. It's not like she can control it since they are dreams, I think it was just the fact that we were just talking about it and she had that dream. Like go away lol.
