Infertility

worlds most obnoxious mother.

My mom is driving me bonkers. Here is why:

1. When I told her that we had to move to IVF she told me that she couldnt support that because god will give me a baby when I deserve one.

2. I cant just talk to her like a normal person. When I called her yesterday and told her I was asked to be in a friends wedding she only b*tched and said "how are you gonna pay for that". THANKS MOM! grrrrrrr

3. Today I was taking to her and was trying to talk to her like a human and have normal conversation about my life and mentioned that I cant wait till I get to drink next weekend after i get my BFN. (back story: I truely enjoy going out and drinking with friends, im young and I like to get drunk every now and then... sorry but i do. I havent drank in 2 months because of my metformin.) This was the conversation:

mom: YOU CANT DRINK

me: why?

mom: because you are trying to get pregnant

me: well I will know next week if I am and if in not I am going to drink because there is no reason not too.

mom: well you need to grow up you cant get drunk when you have kids

me: why?

mom: because who will take care of them?

me: a baby sitter or whoever is at home with it

mom: NO, you cant do that because what if something happens to them.

me: they have a dad and 4 grandparents and DH's aunts all within 20 minutes of them

mom: people dont drink that have kids

me: watch me. (hahaha, i said this to irk her)

mom: thats not a good mother.

me: You are awfully judgmental and opinionated..... goodbye

CLICK!

wow, why do I try?! We are just SO fundamentally different.

  • Wow!

    I can definitely relate to being very fundamentally different then your mom.  My mom and I are very different people too.  My mom can be judgey too, although she is much more passive aggressive about it then your mom sounds.
