Hello everyone, I'm wanting some opinions on whether I'm being reasonable in my thinking....
I'm 31+4 (sooo excited!) and earlier in my pregnancy my mum said she wanted to put some money towards a cot, at the time we had our eye on a bedroom furnitature set so I was like great! Whatever you want to do happily received.. All good! We've since brought said furniture set and she knows this but no offer of monies, I've not said anything as it sounds really rude asking for money and just let things tick on by however when browsing the sales in sainsburys today it's "ooooh do you want me to buy anything for little one?!" I found myself thinking (but definitely not saying !!!) yeah how about the cot money you said about?! Am I wrong in thinking like this, it feels very much like she offered the cot money in the first place expecting me to refuse but happy to spend a couple of quid on her first (and only grandchild) I think I might be being hormonal with it, she's normally quite Stingy with money. I don't want to sound mean or spoilt brattish please tell me if anyone thinks I'm being unreasonable by thinking this way ! Thanks ! Xx
