My MIL has a set of brass ones and she was totally serious girls, she told me if DH and I are trying to have a baby that she is planning on going away to The Orient next February for 18 days and she will not cancel her trip no matter what and that me and DH should not even try 9 months before she leaves!! All she cares about is herself- she goes away at least 3 x a year on extravagant trips. The NERVE! We are not going to stop TTC because of her it is her loss if I get pregnant and she is away! Thanks for letting me vent!

wow - that IS rude!!!

My mom said something like that to me too! Shejust started a new job last month and said that we couldn't have a baby for another year so she could take vacation days to stay with us!!! Um, that's NOT what I'm planning around - thanks!!

Your MIL will have to deal with it - if taking an extragavant vacation means more to her than being around for her grandchild's birth - then she's the one missing out!!! Sorry to hear that!

I don't know what it is with some MILs. I think the minute they become one they forget what it is like to be the DIL and have to deal with the MIL !!!
