Hello,
Myself and dh are expecting our first baby together. I have 2dcs already and he has a son from a previous relationship.
Relationship with sons mother has always being difficult. She's very bitter and twisted. I won't go on but she's absolutely vile and treats dss as a weapon.
Just this weekend she announced she won't be dropping off dss anymore on the morning she's supposed to as it's no longer convenient. Either dh picks him up or 'don't bother having him' also followed with 'I'm his mother, I call the shots'
I witnessed this conversation over the phone.
I could go on and on....and on....and on.
Anyway it's nearly time to start telling people about our pregnancy. I know for a fact that this is not going to go down well with her. I'm expecting her to react with some horrible nasty comments and it's all going to be about how dss won't be his priority anymore etc etc. Which is a load of crap.
I never get involved with her to be honest, she has caused us a lot of stress over the years but I've only ever once text her telling her to back off because she included my children in her argument. She also trapped dhs arm in her door as he was dropping dss off and it bruised badly.
This is my baby so I really will struggle to keep quiet when she's kicks off. Any advice on how to handle the whole situation?
