My MIL keeps telling me I am not eating enough... Well I am nauseated more then half the time... so how can I eat? I eat when and what the baby lets me eat. He is picky just like his daddy.. so its not like I can force my self to eat something bc I'm not going to.


I know what you mean by the baby feeling self-conscious of his name... I am going to have to set down her, BIL and SIL.. bc they dont like the name either and talk to them all at once about it. I'll try to be nice about it... but no promises.

I still vote for Pedro though! They don't have to like it if they don't want to, it's not their child.

Right, But its funny how every one thinks they know best and wants a hand in naming it. I already told my hubby last night, I hope the name grows on her by the time we have Pedro.. if not, then maybe when he turns 18, she will like it by then. He looked at me and said if you where not set on naming him that before you are now arnt you. I told him we had the name picked out AWAY before I even got preg. and she knew it.... so its not like it was a big shock or anything.

Yeah that's the reason why I'm not telling my MIL the names we're considering...I really don't want to hear her opinion of them. I could care less whether other people like or hate the name, it's not their child and not their decision. As long as hubby and I are happy with it, that's all that counts. My MIL keeps bugging us for a list of names but we just tell her we don't know what she's talking about. I've told my parents the names we're considering, but I also told them that I didn't want any opinions unless I specifically ask, so they've been great. And Pedro is a great name that means a lot to you. So it really doesn't matter whether she likes the name or not, she needs to keep her opinion to herself and respect you and your family.

WOW!

I actually was reading this, going through similar experience.. except.. everyone didn't like what we were going to name my daughter, and then when i had decided on another name, people were like omg, make up your mind!

i was like shut up, it's my kid, i'll name her whatever i want. that's why we ended up not telling people what we were going to name her till she was out, because it was such a dispute.. and DO NOT get me started aboutmy MIL..

she caused me to have post partum depression.. i was so depressed and stressed out.. and then i didn't eat, which caused me to make my milk supply deplete. it was BAD.. lol

she's getting better, but i try not to let her get to me.. my husband actually was the one who told her she was causing me so much stress.. of course she gave her sap story that she wanted this for my daughter and that for my daughter.. and he was like.. exactly.. it's not YOUR daughter.. lol..

the end

Don't Worry Olivia.. when your beautiful boy comes out, remember he's yours no one elses

I have a great MIL. She is generous and kind and never interferes. I work with a girl who's MIL is a nighmare like yours. My only advice is not to let your anger over this become a wedge between you and your husband. No matter how wrong she is, she is still his Mom, and hearing negative things said about her, true as those things are, will hurt your husband. And could lead him to resent you. You need to vent your frustrations over her outrageous behavior, but try to do it tactfully so that your husband doesn't end up getting defensive of her. To attack someone's parent in to attack the child. What she's doing is terrible and wrong, and you can't change her. Just think about how you would feel if your parents were treating your husband this way, and how you would want him to react. Perhaps you wouldn't want him to overlook the wrongs. But maybe you'd want him to love your parents anyway, warts and all
I'm sorry she's making what should be a joyous time for you a time of anger.
I wish you and your baby God's blessing.
With love and concern, Rhonda

GIRL TELL ME ABOUT IT!!!!!!
i am white and my husband is mexican and she would tell him why are you marring a white girl shes an oakie and she white trash and blah blah and then when i was preganat i told them i was naming my twin daughter abigial and she said well i not callin gher that i will call her abby and im not calling her some old lady white girl name, and i was like then dont talk to her, i take things like that to heart, i mean if you dotn like some ones name then you dont like it no matter what, so if she doesnt like baigail than she isnt going to like it now and guess what my daughters name is abigail and no body was gonna tell me what to name her. this is your daughter and you want to name them a name you can be proud of a name you want to hear everyday.

mother in laws are crazy there is onyl a racial thing if she makes it one, and personally my mother says some dumb things like the taco bell baby and such but to me that is down right disrespectful, and the next time she eats at taco bell you tell her ohh i dont hear you making fun of taco bell now huh

[suzysmitt]

Obviously she has issues, but don't let them be yours. I don't care if your Bohemian and she's French. Only you and the dad pick the name, and if I were you I would tell them ahead of time I do not want her anywhere near the labor room. What a b****.

[chachi]

I wouldnt let it bother you. You do tend to see the worst of some mother in laws when grandchildren are involved. My Mother in law made comments about the name we chose for our daughter. My Mother in law is thebiggest busybody you would ever meet. I have gotten used to her though

[stephluvsangel6]

oh yes tell me about mils and their sap stories on the day of my babies funeral my other 2 were sick from taking antibioticds to make sure they didnt have the diesease the cause my baby to leave us so soon she comes in my house telling me that i dont care about my kids and that i dont pay attention to them and take care of them and that she owuld take them if i couldnt take care of them and that his rash was bad and she wasnt going to the funeral cause she had to take him to the doctor, and we were like excuse me and i just went down my hallway towards her and told her to get the hell out of my house and i didnt want her back and so she had allready took my sons pamper off which he had it off all morning but we were leaving so we had put it back on for the trip and and she took it off so when i told her to leave she handed him to me and i took him from her and so he pooped all the way down my skirt and i was ready for the funeral i mean literally going to jump into the car and go and i was livid and i was yelling at my husband and so she was telling my husband oh well i dont want to lose him to and oh i dont want jo jo to die to and i rolled my eyes and told her oh please, he has a rash for christs sake its not like hes dying, i mean i had sympathy for him but gosh i had allready taken him to the doctor and gotten cream and the doctor basically said there is nothing you can do, the medicine made us all sick and poop and just yucky, it was horrible medicine, and she told me i was a liar that i never took him i didnt care about him, i was soooo livid and to this day i hold those things to her and its bad but you know once and it can be forgiven and forgotten but more than twice and youre out of my life
