Pregnancy Info HOME

hi and thanks Aspen and KRissy!! the waiting is ok (cause I know i am in trouble once the lo gets here :))..it is just all the calls and emails and the mil putting the pressure on me that is annoying. I am going to go stage my dh's house (d*ckheads) house lol for resale today. the mil is coming to watch my daughter. I figure it will get my mind of things a bit and satisfy the mil's need to "be around". The mil is just too in your face type. she has never had a job before and with her sons out of her houses..she has nothing to focus on except being a hypocondriac..and meddling in other peoples business..she is very catty and uneducated. I truly feel sorry for her and never let on how I feel..but she has used alot of poor judgement with what she says to me or the way she acts. sorry I am going to go off again here goes..recently when we went to a funeral, this is what she did.. I dressed my 2 year old in a little black skirt and white top and pulled her hair in a high ponytail and placed a little black flower in her hair. (The reason for the black was because we were going to a very tragic double funeral, where I thought my daughter was going to have to come, and at the last minute the mil came home and was able to watch my dd. When she saw my dd dressed in the black skirt and black flower she said "take that flower out of her hair right now" and proceeded to take it out of her hair" she then said "you should not dress a child in black" ....WHAT??? I thought..I can dress her anyway I like frankly, and out of respect for the deceased she is wearing black like the rest of us. I gave the mil "the look" of what the heck are you doing? I just thought that was quite rude. Anyway, another rant for the day..I guess this helps me get through my days of waiting..lol.

btw my mom lives about 20 minutes away by car..but my mother never meddles in my business and is very supportive of me. we are like-minded and when it comes to child rearing we have similar views. Last time when my baby was born..I suffered from retained products of conception and was hemmoraging for 9 weeks..finally had the D&C..but again it was all about the mil as she was offended that I did not invite her to the hospital when I had to be in emerg 3 times over Christmas with a newborn. I'm sorry but it is not a celebration to be bleeding and going to the ER. She has never let me live that down either as she brought it up to her son that she wants me to treat her like her mother..well she is not my mother and the bond I have with my mother is completely different.

Well..I think I have enough off my chest..I apologize for getting into this now..but that is just how i am feeling while i am inwaiting. :)

Hoping you all have a great weekend..XOXO
