Hi feeling a bit like I want to share experiences and see if anyone else has this problem. Basically we are ttc at the moment but I have the feeling that my MIL is going to ruin pregnancy for me and become worse when baby comes. She's very passive aggressive - we live quiet far away so see her about once a month but she would want it to be more often if we had a child. We have never married because of her behaviour, knowing she would ruin it. Basically she is rude, everything revolves around her needs and feelings, she 'attacks' people and their character etc for fun and discussion, she says different things and opinions depending on the company and so is completely unpredictable. Couple of examples - She has once taken a load of my clothes to wash (I didn't know or ask) and they came back shredded -she said it was the washing machine, she cooked me a different meal to everyone else because she ran out (I am not as fussy with food as others) and I just happened to get food poisoning, she told me I was to talkative so I tried to just be polite and engaged and she said I am rude and dont want to visit....
Anyway my partner and I have observed her critical behaviour of our lives and her desperation to have a baby to keep up with her grandma friends (she hates baby's btw) and I just know it's going to get worse. I can't talk to her -it's been 7 years trying - is there anything I can do but avoid them ? As the baby grows I know factually she will try to poison them against me because she has for older grandchildren..... And she will basically bully my child. Help! (Sorry bit of rant)
