they should be happy

[LovemyKids86]

so DF told his mom and his mom told his sister who then started texting me sending me all kinds of questions and basically putting me down about the pregnancy. My daughter is almost 4 and is super hyper all the time and she said she "was out of control and still had a lot of work to be done" like my child is some kind of animal in training. I broke down to cry. I know my child is out of hand sometimes but she is like that because when she is with her grandma on DF side she lets her do whatever she wants and then acts out with me since I won't let her do the same things. She works against me and I'm the one that is getting put down. I am happy about this pregnancy and don't need her putting me down. I think part of it is jealousy because her son is the youngest grandchild and now he won't be.

I just want them to be happy, aren't they supposed to be happy and excited??
Why are they soo negative??

OH geeze, completely insensitive.  I agree, children get bored!!  Especially if they're the only child!  It is 100% a blessing and I"m soo happy for you! :)

And tyvm!! :D

Thank You, I hope you get your BFP!! I think this is a blessing and I will continue to be joyous about my precious little bean. My daughter is hyper but I think she's honestly completely bored. She's an only child and needs a playmate because when she is with my family she isn't bad, she is a toddler and she has manners also. She says please and thank you and your welcome when it is needed. She has her spurts and it really hurt to hear "I hope this one isn't as bad as Shosha, for your sake"

Ahh gotta love the in-laws OR FUTURE in-laws.  I'm sorry you  had to hear such negative things. ANY baby is a blessing, no matter if it's going to have a hyper sibling OR 10 hyper siblings.  They should be happy for you and honestly keep their negativity to themselves.  Glad she seems to be coming around though.  I can't imagine how my inlaws would feel if I actually became pregnant. My Monster n law has the nerve to tell me that DH and I don't need a child because we're child like ourselves. :S  There's a time to be mature and a time when it's okay to play around.  It's not like we're coloring pictures and putting them on our mama's refrigerators. :S  Anyways, the last grandchild on Dh's families side is 15 yrs old! :O So hopefully we can add to that one day. :D  

Just enjoy it hun, you deserve this!!

I think they maybe warming up to it because SIL just texted and asked if I wanted her to save any of her baby stuff for me. I'm glad its something that they will warm up to!

I am nearly 26, they are acting like I'm a teenager and it isn't my place to have another child on my own terms.

My child isn't bad she's a toddler and she's bored…it just hurt my feelings knowing they are so negative about my daughter (their niece and grandchild)

You can't make them be happy all you can do is tell them 1 how you raise your child is your business and 2 if they have anything and you mean anything negative to say about either of your children they can keep it to themselves because you're not interested in their negativity
