First GD post newly pregnant and feelin fine until Father in law comment today gonna have his silly comments forever!

So girls this is my first GD post ever and until today i was feeling k about this babe whatever I am only 4 1/2 wks pregnant but my silly father in law had to go and take away that happiness and place it with sadness.

Let me fill you in a little about my In laws, my MIL has dreams about family and close friends, often dreaming they are preg before they find out and she believes that every time she has correctly dreamt the gender of the child and claims that she dreamt ecah of my children were boys before we found out!!!

So today instead of saying congratulations he says you do know it will be another boy dont you!!  It doesn't matter what you have done it will make no difference,your MIL has already had two dreams about it being a boy, so you have had it, anyway i could have told you before you started all this taht you would have another boy!!!!

I mean for goodness sake why could he have congratulated me and said maybe it will be a little girl this time, or i hope you are feeling well?  Then he went on to say I hope you wont be disappointed when you have another boy, as we were leaving he called out bye to each of my boys then said and bye Oliver, we haven't even told my boys yet as its too early and Oliver is not the name we will call himeither!!!!

I just feel like he has taken away all my hope and i feel sad now when i was just feeling elated that i was pregnant!

Why do people have to do it whey do they have to comment, my DH said that i need to ignore him, my hope does not come from him but from God and we prayed for a little girl and swayed for a little girl we will have to see what God blesses us with.

Anyway Rant over for now I just hope they keep their comments to them selves from now on!

firstlycongratulations on your pregnancy,I wish you a healthy and happy 8mths.

 Secondly thats why some mil get bad names,mine was the same.knew everything about everything. she also predicted a 4th boy for us and was wrong. nothing more was said about her 'dreams' after the birth. her two cents all the way through could have driven me over the edge.So we didnt find out and wouldnt have told anyway.It drove her mad.

Try to ignore them all,youll most likely hear more along the way people just cant help it. Youve got every chance of a daughter,I hope you get her. Have you decided weither to spill the news or not. Give it some thought,it could change the way the next few months go.Its quite and important choice to make (finding out and telling or not)

I didnt and kept my thoughts boy/girl all the way along. It worked for me and by the time I was due I was ready for either,I truly was. give it some thought. As for mil/fil get em a bone to chew on 

Sorry some people have to be such jerks. I feel some things in life come down to jealousy of not wanting other people to be happy. Bitter bodies. Hope you get your little girl.

Congratulations on your pregnancy!

I too hate inlaws! We have a surprise 4th pregnancy which my husband seems over the moon about - Im still trying to wrap my head around it. But anyway. My DH rings his father and tells him 'we have news, it wasnt planned but we are pregnant and were excited etc' his dad then lectures DH on being irresponsible, 'I thought by now you'd know how to prevent these things' all that type of negative crap. Ugh, just because he had an unhappy horrific marriage doesnt mean that myself and DH are in the same situation. Same to you, just because your MIL has a couple of whacked out dreams it means nothing except maybe shes having too much caffeine before bed and she needs a warm milo instead. I once dreamt my baby turned into a blob of jelly and dissapeared but that never came true. It really shits me that people put their own negativity back onto us when we should be applauded for getting pregnant and treated like princesses throughout our pregnancies instead of second class citizens!! I really hope you get your little girl and that we can all learn selective hearing around these people and their nasty comments
