[quote=Anonymous]I have a similar relationship, only it's always been that way, rather than changing when we had a baby. It would probably seem to the outside observer that things are good, but it always feels to me that things are only good due to constant vigilance on all our parts. It's been bad before, and I usually think my MIL could very easily drift back into her bad habits. I have no idea what is her trying to do the right thing and what is actually sincere. They always say they are glad to see me, but I quietly think to myself that they would rather I not be there. After all, that's more time holding our son and talking with DH. It's not like MIL devotes much of her conversational energy towards me anyway. I wish I had an easy relationship with them, but we just don't. But it is not horrible either, and my ILs do pretty much respect our time and boundaries and are flexible, for which I am grateful.[/quote]
