My daughter and I match a lot.. and I'm currently pregnant with another girl. So today my MIL said I started shopping for the new baby... "nothing matching because hopefully this one will be her own person". Kinda hurt my feelings. And husband just stayed quite.
I really enjoy matching with my daughter and she loves it too. They are only little for so long

She sounds jealous of you ask me

i agree she sounds miserable and is jealous of the relationship you have with your daughter. dress them how you want, if it’s matching then do that. you’re building a bond with her/ them. at least you’re not a deadbeat mom that could care less about your daughters. i swear i hate mil’s sometimes, they’re so bitter and for what? like what does her comment get her? five seconds of joy? you just do you and let her live her life of misery and jealousy. i’m petty so i’d throw away any shit she got but that’s just me, obviously you don’t have to but i’d personally disregard anything she gets out of spite and i’d probably sell it publicly so she knows i’m getting rid of it. do whatever makes you and your daughter/daughters happy, they won’t remember anything but that you loved them and tried your hardest to be present and fun in their lives. i don’t see how you matching with them/ her does any harm.

Me: She can be her own person when she buys her own clothes
😅 When people troll me, I tend to troll right back

Omg I love matching my daughter! Why can't people just be positive 🙄

Out of interest.... does she have any daughters herself? It sounds like a very boy mum thing to say 🙃
Either way tell her to mind her own! Jealous cow!
The 3 of you matching are gonna look amazing! 👌🤩

Hahaha 🤪 I get this with putting my boy in joggers and he can dress in other pants, I think everyone has something to say🙄

Fuck that bitch. Girl, get those matching outfits, she sounds like a bitter old lady. It's cute, I also love matching with my kids.
Don't let her ruin it for you.
Apparently his family don't like that I dress my girls in batman stuff so now I do it out of spite ....and because I like it 😆

Damn I’m so off because I would’ve laughed so hard😭 it’s kinda funny. But I would also ignore it and continue matching 😂😂

Just laugh it off. If I got upset every time my own mother made a comment I would be in a permanent state of rage.
Who cares what she thinks

Sounds like she’s jealous.

It’s totally up to you how your daughter dresses (at least at the moment anyway). I think matching clothing is adorable and you’re right, they are only little for so long. This is totally something my MIL would say. I’d purposely wear matching clothes around her but maybe I’m just petty 😂
