Could I please have a private post? My mother in law and I used to be really close until towards the end of the pregnancy when I didn’t want her in the room when I gave birth (only because I felt uncomfortable it’s my first baby and didn’t know what to expect) ever since then she’s been very manipulative towards me and my partner trying to start fightes between us months after my daughter was born my father in law told my partner I was a “dog” for not wanting her in the room but had my own mother in the room (my Mum is a registered nurse so I had her in there for support as I had a very high risk pregnancy) and told my partner his Mum cried for days after that which then led my partner and I to have a huge fight and I was made out to be quite selfish. she calls me names in front of my child when my partners not in the room for example instead of Mum she will refer to me as the “food lady” she acts all sweet and innocent when my partners around but goes against my wishes behind my back for example she was three months old and hadn’t eaten solids before and I saw her feed her VANILLA ESSENCE off a spoon without asking first my poor daughter was trying to spit it out and she kept shoving the spoon in her mouth and there was a time I let my daughter stay there overnight about a month ago as she lives nearly two hours away and doesn’t see her much I have strict instructions to only feed her the puréed food I packed but she fed her toast instead which led my child to choking only told me about it when my partner wasn’t there and laughed about it, she never comes down to see my child but at the moment she’s been coming down every weekend and hasn’t bothered to drop in and see her grand daughter when I bring all of this up to my partner he defends her and makes me feel like I’m being a bully I don’t really know what to do I’m at my wits ends after this weekend I offered her a drink when I was getting up to get one and she declined but when my partner offered her one she made out she was really thirsty and I didn’t offer her a drink it’s all just petty sh*t but it’s really getting to me I feel like I’m becoming quite absorbed to it all and it’s really the only thing I think about because it’s really frustrating me and I have no one to speak to about it does anyone have any advice on what I should do should I leave it or address the issue? Am I over reacting?
