[quote=Anonymous]Very strained relationship with MIL. She had hardly been present in our lives for many years. Get pregnant, and all the sudden she wants to be here all the time, all up in our business, talking about how she's going to visit "her baby" every other weekend, on and on. It got worse once the baby came. Was absolutely suffocating--and for two new parents trying to figure things out and are introverted by nature, having this overwhelming (and utterly effing clueless) personality decide she's going to be smack in the middle of our lives was just too much. My husband had to put a halt to it, even though it hurt him very much to do so. MIL blames it all on me, it's very difficult for DH to listen to her badmouth me every time she calls. We see her maybe once a year. My relationship with FIL was just fine before the kid. WE see him a little bit more frequently than before, but really nothing has changed.[/quote]
