Am I in the wrong for not wanting my partners mum to have every single photo of our daughter?

Honestly I would be on your MILs side with this one. My in laws always want pictures of my children whereas my parents are happy to be sent them whenever we want to.

I personally like having grandparents who are obsessed with their grandchildren.

I don’t think it is wrong to not share EVERY photo! Send the ones you don’t mind sharing and keep the ones you want private to yourself!

She absolutely does not need every photo. I don’t send my MIL them as she never asks and the odd time my husband pesters me to send them I send one or two. And usually make sure I’m in them so she can’t claim them as her own 😂 petty I know but 🤷🏻‍♀️

I do tend to send most photos to my mum and MIL and all my sisters too tbf so they’re included. I don’t quite get the mentality of wanting private photos as first time parents (not saying it’s wrong btw I just don’t think i understand why it would matter if they’re shared with family). That being said they never go on at me to I just share when I want to. If you had issues with her it’s a bit different but if she’s nice I’d want to include her or better yet tell her son to send them so you’re not hassled lol 😂

I lowkey do this too lol

I absolutely love sharing as many photos as I can with my daughter's grandparents and love that they want to see her ❤️ they don't need to ask; I already do it 🥰

I absolutely love the fact that she’s obsessed but it’s getting to the point where she’s trying to take over and her asking for every single photo just adds to her taking over.

well my partner mentions it to me but I say yeah and then just “forget” I do send the odd one here and there but she asks me every day

I suppose that’s the good thing about having a husband with terrible memory I tend to ‘forget’ too 😂

My feelings are she’s hardly in his life why does she get to see it. She’s not there, she doesn’t ask for updates so no photos for you ☺️

Two things. If she wants them have you thought of getting a sharing app, we use the one family album and then everyone we invite to the album can see every pic we post there
Secondly, what kind of mil is she, just for her own viewing pleasure or is she posting it all somewhere…

I am always so wary of them showing pictures around to strangers. I have had my mom show me private looking pictures of other people's babies... Like her friends friends grandkids lol. Do not ever feel bad about being cautious over what you send.

My MIL is just like this. She hovers over her son and is obsessed with our kid. Mind you, she had 4 other grandkids that are older than my kid, but because she has this weird obsessive relationship with my partner, our kid is the favorite. He doesn't make the situation any better. He tells her everywhere we go, talks to her every single day. Have a joint account etc. it's ABSOLUTELY SUCH a turn off and he doesn't get it.
