“Well, you can have the opposite problem, and nobody care about your baby…”

r/

My mother in law’s response to me saying that I’m waiting until viability week to share/finalize the baby registry.

This may not convey as well over text because it was truly the TONE in which she made the statement – snark/disdain.

Deep breaths.

    I’d be curious of MIL response if you questioned her….like…why would you say something so mean /silly? Why would you create hurt and stress during this time?

    WTF. Of all the things to complain about, not having access to the gift registry in the first trimester? You know she is just going to buy whatever she wants anyway!

    Wowwwww. She lost her privilege to receive anymore information about baby until baby is earth-side.

    Make her be the last to see the registry. If you’re having a baby shower send her invite at the last possible minute “oops idk what happened it went out with everyone else’s it must have gotten lost in the mail I will resend one!”
