[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I thought your post was crazy and not healthy.

That said an incident came to mind that no one in my family will let me forget.  It was when I had literally a 3 week old after a c section and a very energetic and early rising 2 year old and was by myself - my husband was traveling for work.  My MIL said she would come over at 8am to watch the 2 year old so I could hopefully sleep.  I was so exhausted and hormonal and I was literally checking the clock every 5 minutes waiting for her to get there and take my 2 year old out.

She was late, really late.  I was tearful and exhausted, I wondered if she was even coming at all.  I called her up and when she answered I said, "you said you would be here at 8 but you're not!  where are you?  You're late!"  sob sob.

No one has ever forgotten it, I will never be forgiven.

To me this is very sweet.  I read this and think you expressed your feelings to your MIl just as you would to your own mom.  You were exhausted and counting on relief.  When I read your story, I hear a little girl who wants her mommy to make it all better.  The fact that this feeling was directed at your MIL is pretty awesome.  You view her similar to your own mom.[/quote]
