DH and I have been together for nearly 6 years, married for 3. From the beginning his mom made fun of me for being Catholic and too quiet. That was fine, I was just dating the guy. There was a huge blowout with his sister and him where his sister claimed I told him to kick her out (they use to live together). When all that went down I decided I was done putting up with unnecessary family drama and broke up with my bow DH. He begged and pleaded and said he'd stand by me and we got back together. When we got engaged my Future MIL said to not expect help, throughout the years she's made callous comments about my weight and her son being married to what looked like a teenager. I'd let it go because I barely saw her and it was awesome. Fast forward to now, we got pregnant and now have a 2 month old. I've refused to reach out for help from her because I don't want her around me but have put up with her for DH sake. On Monday she asked if she could come during lunch hour to see her, I'm ebf and honestly live in a bra while I do chores with my baby. I don't like having company without DH here because if LO gets really fussy then I need to excuse myself and tend to her, so I said no she couldn't but that she could come by in the evening when DH was home... This led to a whole thing of I keep her son and granddaughter away and that its all my fault and I have to live with it. I'm absolutely fine without having her in our lives, if it were up to me she would have yet to meet LO. She claimed I haven't respected her since day 1 yet I have never said anything to the woman or made any snarky remarks as she has through the years. I'm content with my decision and DH supports me 100% but I can't help and feel bad for DH, since we had LO he misses his mom but she stresses me out and I want to focus on baby and keeping milk supply up. I did the right thing, right? This whole blow up happened because I didn't want her to come over when DH wasn't here, and when I told her how she's never made me feel welcomed she completely dismissed me and told me I was holding a grudge lol which to me it doesn't feel like a grudge but rather I'm going to stop taking the shit and comments
