Glad to see I'm not the only one that has gotten the shit end of the stick out there haha. I actually have a friend who was engaged to be married and the mother of the soon to be bride caused her daughter to call off the wedding soon after he had just bought a Condo under his name for both of them.

Needless to say I have very little faith in this woman, but I suppose at some point or another she may be of help. I'm actually closer to my wifes grandmother, Her grandfather passed last March and he was the apple of her eye and meant alot to both of us. Her grandmother is the nicest women you would ever meet and even her grandparents understood how I felt about they're daughter. It's sort of hard to hide being the black sheep at family functions when someone doesn't like you. haha

 

To the people starting a life with in laws you dont like... why even start a life if you feel even a bit of un-comfortableness ?

 

Do you ride a unicorn to work every morning? You'll never get married if you wait until you are 100% comfortable with the decision. Part of the reason 50% of people get divorced is because they think* everything is perfect when they get married and are shocked to find out they can't drive their s2000 on rainbows.

 

Well you already agreed, so saying no now would likely result it great acrimony. But on principle, I think you're right. Next time make your reservations known to your wife before you agree to anything.

 

Yes, my unicorn also has rainbow colored sparkles, thank you very much...

 

LOL.

 

my ex mother in law wanted to come to every appointment when my ex wife was prego for out first child, my wife didn't mind at first, but after a few she got tired of it because she was always up her ass about being pregnant, what she should do what she should eat, this that and the other, eventually she got sick of it and well, hormones were kickin and she went off on her. needless to say, she stopped. actually i was deployed when charlie was born, i had to beg her to go to the hospital when megan was into labor.

so just don't piss her off, because if things go down and she's mad at either one of you maybe she won't want to be there for your child and your wife

 

Thanks for the advice. I definately wouldn't push her mother so far as to do that but I could see something like this happening if it came to that.

 

My mol is the same way, she means well but gets on my nerves lol. Congrats on the child, my wife is pregnant and due sometime in the next few days

 

The easiest thing to do and keep everyone happy is to have you and your wife in the room first with the mother and grandmother in the waiting room. Once you and your wife get the news, you can walk about and bring them in and have the ultrasound technician show them next.

This is how it is normally done. The parents first with other guests coming in afterwards.
