My mother-in-law told me baby showers were for "broke people"

Its your baby your life she will get over it you enjoy your new baby its your work to care for not hers just dont share lol

Don’t allow your mother inlaw to run the rules in your life. By the sound of it you will never satisfy her. If you want a baby shower DO IT. You married your man not your mother inlaw

To me, baby showers are a celebration of life. Babies are expensive, so the gifts are meant to help you get started. And it’s so that when the baby does come, you have less to worry about and can focus on your baby.

Your MIL will not hate you more if you have a baby shower, and she won’t hate you less if you don’t have a baby shower. She has a personal problem that you have no control over. If your SIL wants to throw a shower for your baby, enjoy the celebration.

Family or not/inlaws, this lady needs to shush her mouth.

Have the shower anyways? They are a lot of fun

Have the baby shower! It is to celebrate the birth of a new little one. Regardless if you are broke or not. People want to come together and celebrate and bring gifts. Same for bridal showers and wedding registries. It happened to me in this instance. I was asked if I wanted one, said yes of course- my first and only wedding. Created a wedding registry. Doesn’t matter if we are 40yr olds who lived for along time on our own.there were things we wanted and needed, and to be able,to have NEW. Items WE picked out and not our relatives had me downs was lovely! Regardless of other opinions. If you have not a lot of baby things, or you do, it doesn’t matter. And if you give them all away years ago, you have to start fresh, so why not have a party?it’s not like YOU are throwing it for yourself, you have a family member throwing it FOR you. MIL can either come, or not.she is not who matters here! Just make it clear to other family members that if she causes a scene at the shower should she show up, they will not tolerate it and ask her to leave. Nobody needs that crap- I’ve witnessed it at another bridal shower and it was awful!

Why do you care what others say or think :thought_balloon: Personally fuck all those who think they have a opinion on your pregnancy and life. Do what you want, if they ain’t f*cking you, financing you or feeding you, girl bye :wave:

That’s bull! It’s a celebration of a new life and family. Have your shower!:heartpulse::birthday:

Your Mother Inlaw is wrong

  1. Your sister in law sucks for telling you this…she should keep that kinda bullshit to herself. Her mom venting to her should remain private so I’d be super pissed at her for intentionally bringing that drama to me.

  2. Who gives one fuck how ANY one but you and the father feel? Fuck her. Don’t invite her and when she throws a tantrum asking why…bring your sister in law face to face with her and tell her exactly why. She’ll know the reason AND your SIL will stop telling you this shit because she isn’t expecting you to call her out on it.

You shouldn’t even question yourself. It’s your baby, and if you want a baby shower go for it!

And also…forget doing things that make her love:hate you more. Don’t jump through hoops for her. Be yourself and SHE can decide if she’d like to be a part of y’all’s lives.

Put your foot down now or your in for a lifetime of her bullying and manipulating you and your kid.

Have one and put “we would love to have a traditional baby shower and would love to have you join us in our joy with or without a gift.” And then add a link to your baby shower registry. Then it’s a celebration of joy and nobody is REQUIRED to bring something, but everyone except your mother in law will!

Well I think a Baby Shower would be an awesome way for family and friends to celebrate this coming baby. As for “Monster in Law” and her unkind hateful remarks, you can choose to let this affect your well being in knowing it isn’t true, or dwell on it. Husband needs to step up, and straighten dear ole mommy out…Your Sister in Law needs to give “Monster in Law” a choice in attending this shower, or stay home. Along with a strong warning not to spoil it for you…So enjoy the moment…:slight_smile:

She sounds like she’s already made her opinion of you. Some people are just judgmental and toxic no matter how great you may be towards them. They aren’t worth your energy trying to please them for nothing. No one sane will judge you for having a baby shower. Live your joy and if people dont like it its their problem. Show your current children and upcoming child…the healthy way to live if for yourself and for the people who care for you and your family not that judgey catty woman or types like her

So thats why megans famious friends threw her a shower before she and harry hand their little prince than hey…

Lesley, my feelings exactly. People who come will be delighted to celebrate with you. It isn’t about money. Continue to be respectful and pleasant to your MIL. Her true colors will show and yours will glow. Congratulations. Have a wonderful tim at your shower. PS get pleanty of rest before and after.

Its not about her. Its about you.

I wonder why your sister in law felt she needed to tell you what your mother in law said. If she hadn’t told you, you would still be excited about the shower and going forward. I would ignore what your sister in law said, and act toward your mother in law as if you never heard her statements. People have lots of opinions, but you don’t need to carry them, especially if they are hurtful. Ignore the mean-spirited people in your life and focus on what brings you joy. Good luck!
