We're having our first child after TTC for 4yrs. Hubby opened up to me last night saying he feels depressed, down & stressed. He says its nothing to do with the pregnancy as that's all he wants & is really looking forward to bubba coming soon. Me & my MIL don't really see eye to eye, I try & get on with her just for peace really, but she's very interfering & tries to put hubby against me. Says a lot of horrible things about me to other people which I've heard from them. So basically me & her do argue occasionally, I feel it's best me & her don't mix in which case there won't be problems. But I think hubby feels abit restricted going over to see his mum & stuff, which don't get me wrong I have never stopped him & never will, it's his mum! He said to me last night all he wants is peace & for us to get on, in which case he can also look out for her more & keep an eye she's okay (as he's the only child & she's a widow)
I told him I am happy for us to sit down & talk, make her understand that in all this it's affecting my hubby.
But he feels she won't understand & won't care.
What do we/him do?
Sorry to go on. Any advise would be really helpful. Just hate seeing hubby down like this when it's supposed to be such a happy time for us. Sorry forgot to mention above, all this tension & stress is bringing his health down too, he's constantly ill, doesn't want to do anything, doesn't talk much. sad
Please help x
