Winning the MIL battle.

My mom as told me to give up and surrender for the Mother-in-law battle. But I can't, partly because I'm incredibly determined to win.

How did you guys set boundaries with your MIL? I texted her since she's coming into town (they live 8 hours away) about setting up a private ultrasound so she and my FIL can see the baby. Super excited. But she's demanding that my SIL ( who lives 35 minutes away from us) come to the ultrasound. I told her I didn't want that many people coming, and we were only planning this for mine and my husbands parents. She said she wouldn't come or her husband wouldn't come so my SIL can see the baby, because she's SO excited about being an aunt.

I need boundaries. They are moving closer after the baby is born. We've had an awful relationship, mostly because my husband was still attached to his mother via umbilical cord when we first met 😂😂

At this point, I just need my boundaries accepted. This isn't a community baby. It's great everyone is excited, and that makes me happy. But i have my lines that I don't want crossed, just because you're the grandmother or aunt. Anyone else in this boat? How did you deal with such a demanding person?
