M-I-L rant

so march 27th 2011 i found out i was pregnant and after what happened in august – september of last year i was real contious on who we told so early so that IF i miscarried again then i didnt have to worry about forgetting to tell someone and months later have them get ahold of me and ask me how the baby was doing and having to relive the miscarrage. so i only told 3 friends both of our mothers his step-dad and his brother and sister i believe. making sure that i told them all to keep it to themselves for a while and off facebook. well his mother took it as i was treating her like a child and we ended up in a huge disagreement because of it. now we are 22w1d pregnant and found out today that we are having a BOY! well i was on facebook after posting ultrasound pictures on facebook and his mom contacts me this is like the first time we have talked sense the disagreement and she actually makes the comment “when yall move back out here i hope i will get to see my grandson” which kinda ticked me off but i replyed with “of course you will” the origional plan was to have the ultrasound tech write girl or boy in it and i would open it sunday 2 days later sense it was my birthday but to save problems about “this pregnancy is all about me” i had the tech write in the card and then imediatly opened it to make EVERYONE happy. well tonight i was going through my husbands phone and found a text from her asking him “am i allowed to post it on facebook until she does? i dont want problems like last time” well first of all this is an ENTIRELY different situation this time i was wanting to tell everyone and if they already knew i was pregnant then who cares if they knew that i was having a boy or a girl last time it was to protect my emotions feelings or what ever this time WHO CARES! in the end all the messages came across to me kinda like she was blaming me for the past arguments and trying to say things to set me off again. i used to really like and respect his mom but here lately it is getting harder for me to still believe like that. i kinda dont know what to do or expect im afraid of saying or doing something that will make more arguments or problems. i know when you marry someone you marry the family too i just wish she was more understanding about why i do some of the things that i do.
