Hello Girls!

I need advice, am I the one crazy or the grandparents of my futur child?

I am currently pregnant and It is the first grand children of the family. I come from a family of 3 girls and my husband is an only child.

His mother always wanted a lot of children buy never got around to having any more.

The thing is, I understand that everyone is eager to meet their grandchildren, but my problem is that everyone keeps referring to my yet unborn child as my mother-in-laws child.

Even my own mother tells me that I am a bitch for taking motherhood from my mother-in-law and that she deserves that baby. She also tells me that she is going to take care of the baby, not me. And that I should be nicer to my MIL because she will be the one raising my baby.

I feel like people think that I am not capable of raising my own baby which is absolutely wanted and prepared for and that the only person that is capable of raising him is the mother-in-law.

This makes me go bananas! I mean, it is my baby and everyone keeps saying that it's not my baby and that I am selfish and that she's going to have a baby, seriously, what the heck?

Also, my boyfriend and I have a baby room but nothing is ready in it except the rocking chair in which I plan to breastfeed the baby. I asked no one to go into that room because it is not ready and I just don't like when people go in there. For me it is like a special place where my boyfriend and I will get to spend time with our little one. What happens? While i'm not looking my MIL went in and rocked herself in the chair. My heart just sank. I chose not to go ballistic on her but it is my chair for me and my baby. I never planned on anyone sitting in it except me, my baby and my boyfriend. I don't understand her behavior.

The MIL also acts in many ways such as talking to my belly, which I feel like only the mother and father should do. I don't like her getting so involved before the baby is even born...

Am I really just being unfair by wanting my baby to be just my boyfriends and mine? Or are they right and I should let my mother-in-law act that way???

It breaks my heart to feel like my baby isn't born yet and everyone seems to be taking him or her away from me.
