This Mama could use encouragement

Caitlin • 💍👶🏻👶🏻🐾🐾🐾🐾

Y’all. I’m having my first ever possible row with my mil after having an amazing relationship for 7 years. She got saddled with planning our baby shower that my sister in law was supposed to do. No biggie just stinks she’s having to do it all now and I completely understand and feel for her. The problem arises with dates for the shower. I’m pregnant with twins so from April on I’m going to be past the size of a full term pregnancy so we only asked for it to be Feb or March so that I can still enjoy it. My mil would reasonably like at least a month to plan so she looked at March and only one weekend is free and it happens to be one that one of my sils(my hubs is a family of four children) will be out of town going to Disney with her fam that specific weekend. My mil is now pushing for us to look at April dates just so this one sil can be at the shower even though I’ve already expressed I will not want to do anything and will probably(hopefully not but still being realistic here) be on doctor ordered bed rest by then. I’m sure I’m being a little over emotional due to pregnancy hormones but I’m honestly feeling pretty hurt that my sil is a more important factor than the comfort and wishes of the people the shower is actually for. I honestly hate that she wouldn’t be able to come but if it’s the only free weekend with enough time to plan, that’s life sometimes. Can someone offer some words of encouragement to lift me out of my funk? Also thanks for attending my TED talk. 😅
