MIL Issues

How do you guys deal with MIL issues? My husband and I just went no contact and it’s not going well on her end. She’s done so many crazy disrespectful things to myself and my husband, I don’t want her around my child. Doesn’t respect boundaries, says nasty awful things about us to other family, and many other things. She is not handling the no contact well, just wondering if anyone else has a similar situation!😂😭

@Georgia we just bought a house that’s maybe 25 minutes away from them so unfortunately not in the cards for us :( But it’s not so much with my pregnancy, it’s been an entire year of drama leading up to this moment and we’re just done with it. The stress isn’t good for me or the baby and my husband is was the one to cut ties, she’s now texting and calling my own mother trying to get to us 😂😭

My fiancé and I had/have a similar situation with my soon-to-be MIL with the disrespect and saying awful things about me. Eventually he called her a dumb bitch and said unless she apologizes to both of us, she's not welcome at the wedding (the first opportunity to meet her future grandson in April). He stopped talking to her and she tried texting him, but he ignored her. Eventually she apologized and so far, it seems to be going better. However, the damage is done, and we're keeping her at a distance. She lives across the country, so our situation is different. But I know it is very upsetting and stressful, which you definitely don't need right now. I would let your husband and mom deal with it how they want to (I'm sure my mother would block her #); you just focus on yourself and the baby. If you're not comfortable with her being around your child, don't let her. As long as you and your husband are on the same page about it, it's your choice!

Avoidance mostly. 😂

@Elaine sounds very similar! She’s not trying to contact my mom to get to us…. It’s all a mess 😂
