Thanks for all the responses girls. MIL is coming to see my girls on thursday so we shall see what happens xx
hey hun
sorry for the reaction you got from your mil... they can be funny things... my NOW X but a couple of months ago parter and i told his mum about me being pregnant and she seemed ok apart from telling us e were stupid and asking how we would afford it... (we both work full time) but then banned me from the house and i became.... "THAT GIRL" when she spoke about me... he moved in with me which made it wors... then she said something to him. he decided bump wasnt his and moved back out and is now living back with her and hasnt spoken to me since... we have been friends for 15 years so it is a horrible feeling. and im afraid i do blame her..
your other half is prob feeling horrible about the reacotiuon as its his mum and its hard for lads to separate themselves somtimes... you two will be fine though and im sure shell get over it in the end... shes just being jealous about what you two have got...

Ah thanks hun, yes they are funny things! How dare your exes mum say something to him that would make him think baby's not his!!??
I had two kids from my previous marriage when i met my current partner. We got pregnant with number 3 in 2007 and she was not happy. She did say something to him about getting tied down and taking on step-children - thankfully he didn't listen and decided to go with his own feelings! THANK GOD!
I don't know where they get off on acting this way!
My eldest son is 11 and it's taught me not to ever be horrible to any of his future girlfriends - you have to accept your child's partner no matter what your feelings are.

mine was the same with number 4, she didn't mention a word about it for ages. The first time i was alone with her she just said, oh you'll probably get really big and that's a problem! For the record i am size 10 so hardly obese! She didn't congratulate me at all. The next time i saw her i challenged her and she completely backed down and made excuses for her bad behaviour. Since then she has been supernan and can't do enough for us - which isn't like her!
I have come to the conclusion that some mums are jealous of their son's partners and i know my MIL likes to be centre of attention and she can't be when i'm pregnant!
I quite enjoy challenging her, we have lots of run ins! She's a bitter old woman who drives me nuts!!! It's a shame as i've never met such a weird person, unfortunately you can't choose your family!!

That did cross my mind actually, that this is another person to take more of her son away from her! I wasn't there hunni or i probably would have politely pulled her on it. OH wanted to tell her himself for this reason. We will keep talking hun, we always do, OH is my best friend. Cheesy i know but true! At first i thought he was trying to protect me cos she had said something nasty, but he assures me not. I think her lack of reaction is far worse. I know she'll be ok in the end especially if she gets the grandson she's been so desperate for since i was pregnant with my youngest. I just wish she didn't have to make life so difficult. Thanks hunni, Im happy too!!! xx
