BelhurstBride:I don't understand what there is to be uncomfortable about?
Honestly, it's a doctors appointment and that's personal to me. Even if I am just peeing in a cup and listening to the heartbeat, it's between my doctor and I.
It's my MIL - not my mom. And the fact that she doesn't talk to me until I have an appointment makes me feel like I"m not good enough until its baby time and then I'm not good enough again. And that goes for DH as well, sort of. He is the black sheep in the family - first to move away, first to do something his parents didn't like - doesn't abide by traditions that she adores. This could go on. She could care less about my leukemia appointments or my other gyno exams that we had some trouble with. Never asked once. (Yes, she knew) I feel like all I am to her is a vessel for her grandbaby now. so that's why I get upset. But it could be worse and I'm trying to keep that thought in mind. She isn't a terror like others I have read about, so that's always good.
