MIL jealous

r/

This monstrosity of a human is so jealous of me as a parent and of my parents, especially my mom.

For context, I’ve posted on here before but since deleted the post because there were a lot of revealing details and I just needed to rant and get advice at the time. Here I am again. LOL

Since postpartum, this witch has not shown up for me or my child in any empathetic way whatsoever. She always has a motive behind what she does and if she does something for you, best believe you’re going to hear about it when she’s not getting her way.

She’s so jealous that I’m extremely hands on with my baby as opposed to her, she dumped her kids onto her sisters and mother to raise when they were a few months old. She hates that I breastfeed, hates that I make my child’s food, hates that I sit and play with her. I’m not understanding why but only jealousy can come to mind. Please correct me if otherwise.
She hates that my daughter loves my mom and prefers to be with my mom over her. Only a psychopath would get upset at that but I digress. And she gets easily offended when LO cries around her. Internally, I can’t help but laugh when this is happening. She pouts like a sore loser and walks away.

Tonight, I saw a text of her calling me ungrateful because partner asked her to use her club membership card to get diapers. I’m not sure how I got caught in that web but somehow I was ungrateful. We need nothing from this woman at all. I told partner from tonight onwards even if you have to spend the extra money on target or somewhere local, just buy the diapers without needing to use anything from anyone. But apparently asking to use a club membership card is bothersome to her and she’s fed up. I truly can’t make sense of it so I’m not sure what I’m looking to hear here.

Thanks for letting me rant!
