I was going to say that the old bat should be shopping for Depend - what's she doing in that store?? Arrgggggg......... how rude.

I REALLY think you need to set the boundaries right now with your MIL. Inviting an ex to your baby shower is the stoopidest thing I have ever heard of in my life. Not only that, I just had my baby shower and had only one relative at it - my mother. Everyone else was friends - it was my choice who was there........ it's your choice who's at yours. Ridiculous.

I reckon if you don't start setting these boundaries now, you are going to have a hell of a time when the baby's born and later when you're married or having a wedding. Time to draw the line. It may hurt, but just remember - "Yes" is not something we always have to say. Learn to say "No" and stick behind it. You'll be very glad you did.
