Hey everyone. I'm new to this group. Was instructed to come here from a different one lol.
So my husband and I have been married for 6 months (together 5 years), and I am 12 weeks pregnant..YAY! My husband told his family, and I told mine. I called his Mom the other day (she acts like she hasn't heard from me in years if I don't call her regularly!) to talk about the good news. After she had talked about herself for a good 20 minutes, I said, "So, are you excited about being a grandmother?" Her response was, "I guess so. I was prepared either way."
Wth does this mean? I have had problems maintaining boundaries with her from the beginning, but this is a whole new issue. To me, it's like she said she doesn't really want us to have children, which is bonkers because she has spent hours telling me how I should raise my hypothetical cchildren. I am so confused and for some reason very ANGRY.
Any insight will be much appreciated.
