MIL Tells DIL The World Doesn’t Revolve Around Her Pregnancy After One Too Many Complaints

Normally, a pregnancy in the family is a time of joy, excitement and, of course, the day to day logistics of working out who is going to help when and how. But some folks think that it’s also an opportunity to start micromanaging. A woman asked the internet if she was wrong for telling her daughter-in-law that the universe doesn’t revolve around her just because she’s pregnant.

As it turned out, the DIL believed that she could suddenly tell people what they could and couldn’t eat, drink or even if they were allowed to have fun. We reached out to the MIL who made the post via private message and will update the article when she gets back to us.
