[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We attended Christmas dinner for the first time at in-laws. We have never been invited before and I am pregnant so we were excited to attend. MIL asked for a list of what I can and cannot eat weeks before to plan her menu. I don't eat pork for personal preference but she has known that for 15 years. Her entire menu were items I cant safely eat while pregnant. Rare prime rib, raw oysters, ham, veggies covered with bacon, salad with feta cheese. The only thing safe was the dinner rolls. Breakfast the next morning was the same, eggs with undercooked yolks, ham and bacon for the sides. What gives?? An oversight or is this something to be mad about? DH is furious and thinks this was done on purpose as a slight to me. I don't know if she is THAT crazy. But it was strange that nothing was pregnancy friendly. Had I known I could have brought something to eat. What do you guys think? The weird thing was DH said they have never had ham before. [/quote] Bottom line is that she hasn't invited in all of these years. That was red flag number one. When she does she doesn't take your dietary restrictions into account. Red flag #2. I'm sure there are other flags waving around. First and last time over their house for dinner. If she wants to see the baby it will be on your terms. Yet, don't giver her taste of her own medicine. Kill her with kindness. It works like a charm every single time. It confuses them and they makes them look bad. She can't be all bad if she raised an amazing son, right?  [/quote]
