Honestly I think IABU so more looking for suggestions to get over it
We are due to go on holiday with ILs over Easter. We’ve been away with them before and they’re brilliant with the kids, always give DH and me time alone as a couple which we don’t otherwise get, etc.
But I’m dreading it to the extent I don’t really want to go. We have a 4yo, 2yo a newborn and I think the faff of the travel is a part of it.
But the main thing is that MIL talks constantly about how amazing their family is, how lucky we all are to be a part of it, etc, and I know it’s meant well but it really grates. I’ve lost both my parents now and whenever she talks like this it feels a bit pointed towards me. Im really missing my parents a lot at the moment - this pregnancy was very hard, and it was one of those times when I just desperately wanted my Mum, and I think that’s exacerbating my feelings.
Anyway. Happy to be told I’m being U and silly. Just needed to get this out and don’t really feel like I can talk to DH about it.
