Need to vent

Ok let me start off by saying 5 1/2 years ago I lost my mom to urtheral cancer.
My parents were divorced. The last 4 years of my moms life they worked together.

My step mom never tried to take on the roll of mom till my mother passed. With the wedding 2 1/2 years ago I needed to set some lines. I think I am going to have to do that again. She goes to the same Gyno. She went yesterday and told the dr that my orthopedic surgeon ( I had a hip replacement 2 years ago) said I can deliver natural. Dr ( who I spoke to about this last feb.) mentioned this to me. I brought it up today and my step mom is giving me attitude. I said please don't ask questions if im not there I may have the same question. I got a lol if there is anything you need to know ill pass it along. NO when I say no that's how it should go. I am now considering changing drs. I like my dr but I don't need this. I was happy and in the moment yesterday and now i am upset. I need her to understand she is not my mother i had one for 22 years. I don't need a replacement

Re: Need to vent

  • I don't have any stepparents but I know a lot of women on here do. I hope they reach out to you with some comfort. I read a thread about some stepparents wanting to be called "Nana," "Papa," etc. With that being said I'm sure it won't get any better once the baby is here.. Stepparent or not. So maybe in the meantime you should spend some time bonding? Getting to know each other? Maybe then you'll have a new found respect for her and vice versa? I have no idea. Either way, best of luck to you!

  • It's not that we are not close I'm having a very hard time with her trying to take this mother roll when all I want is 2 have my mom.
  • I have a stepmother I guess. I've met her once her twice. I was in my late 20's when they married, and I haven't spoken to my father in a decade, so I can't imagine ever even having a phone call with the bimbo. Lol
  • I think this is more of a Dr. issue than a step mother issue. There are strict confidentiality laws in the US and many other countries.
