Today, we told my fiancé's parents that I'm pregnant. His mom's response? "I'm going to throw up. You can't raise a child." We are both 28, self-sufficient and everyone else is thrilled. FML

She's just jealous you're starting your own family. It's her little boy, but he's your man be. Congratulations !

She's just scared because she realized her little boy is a man now

Just because they are self-sufficient doesn't mean they will be great parents. Maybe the mother in law has her reasons for that reaction.

She may or may not have reasons to say something like that. The problem is that 300 characters or whatever can't tell a life story; but if everyone else is excited, we can sort of agree that the mother is the "odd one out". So, included in the excitement are: father in law, mother, father, family, extended family, and friends. OP, you are old enough to decide if your mother in law's statement is valid. If you think it isn't, don't let it stress you out. If you think it is, then work on your life choices.

Or maybe the mother in law is just a big fat bitch, the biggest bitch in the whole wide world.

Give her time she'll come round to the idea and end up thrilled for you I'm sure.

If everyone else's supporting your new family, why bother with that bitch? Wishing the best to you!

Don't listen to her, my mom is the same way. I'm 29, very happily married and we have good jobs, a good family home and are more than ready but my mom still doesn't like it because "she isn't ready to be a grandma".

You're the one pregnant and mother-in-law to be is getting the morning sickness? Sounds like a neat curse.

I hope his mom is being sarcastic, if not, his mom has a problem.

If she acts like this around you, is it a good idea to introduce her to the child?
