What’s the most outrageous thing your MIL has ever said to you?
So thank god my mil is no longer part of our lives. But she said and did some pretty fucked up things toward me. One memory sticks out the most.
I had two back to back miscarriages. The first one at 7 weeks, then the second one at 16 weeks. Shortly after my second loss, we were obviously devastated, me particularly as I had to endure the delivery.
But oh no, she HAD to make it about how much pain SHE was in.
To make matters worse, the second miscarriage happened around the time I would have been due the first time, so I was really struggling.
She came to me and said, “we were out shopping the other day, and I just simply couldn’t bear to walk down the baby clothes section because it’s around the time MY grandchild would have been born.”
Like hello???? How the fuck do you think I feel???
Then, around the time when my second loss would have been due, a distant family member of hers was due the same week I would have been. She was very well aware of this.
She so insensitively came to me telling me how she went to visit the new baby today and how gorgeous he is and how my baby would have been born by now.
Just seemed like a deliberate attempt to hurt me.
So what about you?? Has your mil said anything really crazy or nasty to you?
