I love her to death, but she had a habit of being in our faces all the time and he could never speak his mind to her.
Yes. I love MIL...I really do...but when she gets like this...AGH!! lol We used to go out dancing together. She and I would hang out just for fun, even without xh. Her nitpicking seems to be so much worse right now than I remember...I'm not sure if I just didn't realize the affect it was having before (very likely) or what.
She's out of town for the week. Went to Vegas with her bf. (xh and I both really like the guy, too. Great guy.) So...hopefully, we can both relax a little.

I call it MOMMY GUILT, as a matter of fact there is a good book with the same title. ... I find myself justifying it to myself!
I think it's more than just the baby. I started noticing I did this after he was born...and then, making an effort to correct it. For some reason, I used to feel like I had to justify everything. xh contributed to this stupid circle, but he certainly wasn't the cause of it.
Anyway, I had done a pretty good job of learning to just trust myself over the last year...and I noticed the doubt creeping back in with her here. I think that, more than the actual annoying conversations, is what's really bothering me. I thought I had fixed that issue with myself!

Do you think he will discuss this with you? Does he recognize he's getting crazy again?
We've been talking about it. I mentioned it to him yesterday, but I think I could have explained it better.
He does know how nuts he's been acting. He apologized to me this morning. That is a huge difference from before.
