Mother in law flipped out

My MIL confronted us today about how she feels humiliated by everyone. She has been really generous with me during my pregnancy and birth. However her generosity has come with a price. Ever since my baby has been born it’s been one critique over another. I’m a first time mother and it’s been a learning process. I’m not perfect and i learn something new every day. My mother in law has given us advice and critiques us in every such way. She’s meddled in about what food and what formula I should use to what I’m doing wrong. I’ve told my SO about how it’s made me feel and he agrees her approach is overwhelming and out of hand. Yesterday my mother made a comment that was unacceptable. She commented that my child had severe constipation and looked anemic! She told me I should do more to help her out. Mind you she always thinks the worse! She is in no way anemic! I’m a pretty chill person and tend to go with the flow. My own Pediatrician said that my baby will be ok and that prune juice was enough to relieve it. Mother in law cannot accept any diagnosis. It’s become stressful and overbearing. She finally flipped and said I was disrespectful and that I was making problems in her house and pinning her son against her. My hubby backed me up and gave her a piece of his mind. I would never pin him against her. It’s frustrating because she will always see him in a different light. No way in hell will I ever be seen as family. To make this worse I don’t know what to do other than just ignore her. It’s tough because it hurts to know that someone thinks you are against them. Throughout this whole time she worries about the petty shit instead of the bigger picture. I’m the one who works, handles the bills and tries to maintain order. My mother in law can give two shits about what I think. It’s like mother in laws don’t give a crap about the mom in general. It’s always the baby! 😂Any advice really appreciated right now. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2IhVVEa
