Hormones are getting the better of me 🥴

I’ve been setting up my baby registry and I kept it very simple, listing only the essentials. I’ll probably come off as a bitch but I’m really picky about what I want. I want convertible car seats so that I don’t have to buy multiple, jogging stroller because I want to keep being active after the baby. I prefer natural/organic products, free of harmful chemicals, dyes, etc. Obviously not everything will be that way but I did my best to find the things that I want to use on my baby. Are they the cheapest? No, I know that. Do I expect people to buy it? Absolutely not. Get me a gift card or don’t get me anything at all, I won’t care either way bc I know I’ll get what I feel I need for my baby either way.

Having said that, my husbands family (mainly sister and mother) have been completely up my ass about what I should change on my registry and telling me there are cheaper options and that I don’t need to be like this, they are extremely opinionated about everyyyything. They have judged every thought, every action and every decision of mine since the beginning of my pregnancy. I know they mean well so I’m trying to be patient and appreciative of their efforts to help but it’s starting to get overwhelming and really annoying. Not sure how I’m going to deal with this the remainder of my pregnancy and I know it will get worse when the baby is born 😩 How do I set boundaries without hurting my husbands feelings or without coming off as a complete and total bitch to them? I’ve never been a confrontational person but I’m starting to feel like I’m going to have to be.
