My mother in law is driving me insane! She is currently throwing a fit because I told her she will know the sex of my baby tomorrow, after my parents know first. She was first to know I was pregnant so I only feel that's fair. We have a packed schedule with doctors, school, and working full time and she has specific dates she wants us down, which would be fine if every time We went to visit she didn't constantly tell me what I need to do with my life, my baby, and how I need to treat my husband. And my step father in law always throws a fit because I get sick sometimes (my HG still isn't in great control) so I feel terrible after spending time with them. She's terrible and everything I'm going through she has definitely gone trough, but with her it was 1000x worse. Sorry for the rant and bringing up an old post, but I really needed to get that out before saying something I'll regret later.
Tell her if she doesn't like the order in which you provide news about your baby, that she doesn't have to know ANY news about the baby.
I know that's a lot easier to say here than to actually say in person, but how is she going to know whether you tell your parents first or not?

Ya I've decided DH can tell her if he wants or she can find out on Facebook along with everyone else. She's really pushed it lol. She was going through papers that were on my,coffee table and the order for the ultrasound was there so she knows the date.
My MIL lives with me! And she is the most big mouth woman I have ever met! She thinks the world revolves around her too. When I had my other 2 kids she would go into my room and pick them up while they was sleeping. It was the only time I had to myself. But she always woke them up and they never went to sleep unless they was nursing! I clean up after my 2 kids and her! I'm tired all the time and all she does is sit and watch me clean and cook! So I feeel ya ladies!
