So mad at MIL
We had decided the best thing to do was not go on vacation, and maybe that Kyle would go for a few days, later on in the week. ?This morning, she calls him, and started to give him a hard time about not going, and kept saying how she was just looking forward to having all of her grandbabies there, and if i go into labor out there that it took so long last time that I'd make it home, blah blah blah. ?So, my husband, feeling totally fine, well, maybe not totally fine, but feeling okay about not going, now spent the whole more with overwhelming guilt and disappointment about not going. ?He decided to go today until Monday now. ?I did not expect it to be today at all, and I feel bad about not letting him take Eli. ?I have never spent the night without the kid, and so when i go into labor, that will be the first time leaving him (our little romantic getaway never happened because of San Francisco stuff). ?It would be a pretty bad time now to have him take Eli 4 hours away and leave me completely alone...so, needless to say I'm upset, crying, and so angry that my MIL called him this morning and gave him a hard time. ?GRRR.
Re: So mad at MIL
I'm sorry, that was definitely selfish what she said.
For what it's worth, I think you are making the right decision to stay home and take it easy.
sometimes you just have to hate MIL's. Like mine, last night calling me to tell me "surprise" she invited 5 people to stay at our house tonight and "what are you cooking for dinner?" Excuse me?!?! I have 1 spare bed. (her response: well, you and (dh) can sleep in the living room, can't you?") umm.... NO! no one sleeps in my bed but me and dh (and the dogs!). Ugh, *i love my family, i love my family...*
I'm sorry she did that to you -- if you need us, we're here
I completely agree with this and I'm really really sorry you're going through this at this point in your pregnancy. Honestly, I'd be yelling at my DH too, not just his mom. He's an adult and can speak for himself. It really sounds like you need him right now.
I'm really sorry you're going through this and I hope you're feeling okay!
SERIOUSLY! She is a MOTHER!! And the rest of your family, from what it sounds like, also have chidlren. Who in their right mind wouldn't 150% be supporting your decision right now?!?! Oh I would be LiVID!!! I'm so sorry that you're dealing with this right now, though:( It's the last thing you need to be worrying about!
