MIL issues, im seriously done.
* i am 18, he is 19 * so, me and my mil has never got along honestly. i started dating my husband when i was 16, she told his little sister that she doesn’t like me because i had my septum pierced, which i didn’t even have it anymore, she just saw pictures that i used to, and his little sister told us. my husband always stuck up for me though, especially because his mom wasn’t there for him as a kid, she left and his father raised him, they didn’t actually develop some type of mother/son relationship until about a month after him and i started dating. well, i let it go and was friendly with her, then i found out i was pregnant a little after him and i started dating ( i was 17. ) understandable, she wasn’t happy, she didn’t even say anything, the first time she even acknowledged the pregnancy was when i invited her to the gender reveal and she said “ did you even consider abortion? “ and i said “ im not getting one. “ and that was the end of that. i had complications during my pregnancy, which led me to be hospitalized for 2 months, she never visited or checked up on me or the baby. well when she found out she wasn’t going to be in the room, she was furious, she said i was a terrible mom, im going to be a horrible mom, everything. she called me immature and said i wasn’t ready for a child, which maybe i wasn’t but i was graduating early, my husband and I got our own place, we were engaged, i was prepared to grow up. fast forward, i gave birth 2 weeks before my 18th birthday and RIGHT AFTER i gave birth, she walks in but not only her, her and her boyfriend, btw her boyfriend and her had just started dating about 5 months before this and none of the family likes him, he is rude, he called the little sister a slut, cunt, whore, etc. he is on probation and everything. well, im literally laying on the bed naked, getting moved to the bathroom so the nurse can clean me off and help, and all while im basically naked, they just walk in and she doesn’t even care? like i dont know this guy, i literally just had the baby 45 minutes prior and im naked. that was basically my final straw, but still kept my mouth shut. about two months after ive had her is when me and my husband got married which she wasn’t happy about that at all. now my daughter is 5 months old and we are in a huge argument because i will no longer let her keep my daughter overnight or at all. i recently found out she gave my daughter rice cereal in a bottle because she “ wouldn’t sleep “ and i went completely off, and she told me “ oh shes fine” !!! she has watched my daughter a few times, and had her overnight 2 times, everytime she has her, she come home and cries all day and doesn’t act herself so i refuse to let her have her, im not going to send my daughter somewhere when she cant speak, and just cries and cries after she gets back to me, and its super unusual for her to cry like that, shes one of the happiest babies i know, and whenever anybody else watches her, she doesn’t do that. i honestly dont know what to do at this point, she is just so rude and isn’t respectful towards me at all. she asked us if she could buy us a dog, i said no because i dont have the time or money for a dog, and we hardly have a backyard, its literally ALL deck and a spot of grass, well she said “ im getting it anyways “ and she got it, but we wont take the dog because we said no so everytime we go over, she tries to pressure us into taking it and complains about having to have “ our “ dog! like its not even ours! im sorry i just had to get this out, im SO TIRED of this. i dont want to have to completely cut her off but its getting to that point.
edit: my husband and I both have said stuff multiple times, so has his oldest sister, the mom just brushes it off.
