Your mother in law don't sound like a bad person to me. She is just happy and enthusiastic about the happy, allow her to enjoy the euphoria. Try to make her your friend and be a little accommodating.

You have not jam worse mother in law.

Well, I am going back to work and my Mother-in-law is here to babysit. Ever since she came I am fed up with my mother-in-law. Everything she does annoys me: The way she refers to my child as 'our' little bundle of joy. My husband is the one that warned me on his mom. She was TOO excited when I got pregnant and did the typical mama stuff, telling me how to raise the child. I know she's excited about her first grandchild, but she's frying too much chin-chin in my head..lol. She has to constantly be reminded that I am in charge of my baby I've told my husband how I feel, but he doesn't agree. My Mother-in-law is the nicest person to my face but will talk about me behind my back. She argue my parenting and makes up stories. It's just frustrating to me now knowing i am going to be dealing with a lot.
Anyway, because she is my mother in law doesn't mean she has the right to hurt me.

Is anyone else this annoyed by their mother-in-law? Anyone with any advice please tell me what to do?

You are just paranoid...take a grip on yourself young lady....

dingbang:

lastmessenger:

Go Ahead And Keep Saying Whatever You Want.
Na Me The Shoe Dey Pain, So Double Check And Dnt Die For My Issue.

PaperLace:

Don't get me wrong.
She is over-excited, it's always like that when they see their first grandchild. Subsequent ones, na you go dey find their help.

About questioning your parenting skills, it's most times like that with first kids too. They feel you don't know what you're doing...it's worse if you're young. With time she would trust your judgement and parenting.
You just have to relax ,enjoy her services and ignore side talks...

SafeDavid:
Ewoo!

You sound like a typical Nigerian lady who sees her Miller as a rival rather than a mother figure.

sisisioge:
I think you need to open a diary thread. It will allow you go to town on NL without bothering anyone. Good luck.

teeteelardey:
My MIL is just like yours... She treats my baby like she gave birth to him and sometimes does not listen to my ideas but you know what, I just look at the bright side of life. It's not like she stays with my baby 24/7 so I allow her do whatever she wants then when she leaves I do me. if not you will just be bitter and believe me there are horrible MIL out there so thank God for the one you have
