I'm really disappointed in my in-laws. We're expecting their third grandchild and they never ask how I'm doing or if I need anything. We always ask them and they always go on about their health, their appointments, their whenever and everything else, but apparently have zero concern for me and my husband. AIBU for wanting them to be a bit polite and considerate?
This pregnancy is another high risk pregnancy and we've been having a really hard time, but I feel like all they see me as is a vessel giving them one grandchild after another. They care about their grandchildren and ask about them and sometimes look after them, but they seem to have zero interest in their mother. I find it really quite depressing and I'm worried about the very vulnerable postpartum period where I will simply not be able to tolerate such behavior. I remember when my second was born they came to see her a few days after and all my mother in law did was complaining about the traffic and parking, zero care for me who's only been through major abdominal surgery. Any advice or words of wisdom are appreciated.
