So this is totally off topic, but I need some advice...So I know we are having a boy (found out on Mon) and my parents know, my friends know, my husband's brother and sister know, but his mom does NOT want to know and is putting it on us. She dosn't want us to tell anyone or register for anything that would give it away because she wants it to be a surprise. How am I going to pull this off? I am so excited to register and shop, and how am I supposed to not tell anyone else? It's not MY fault if someone else tells her. I tried to tell her how I felt, but she is NOT being understanding, and putting my feelings down because she was never able to find out and was fine. I feel like this either is going to put a real damper on things, or I am going to have her mad at me. I don't know what to do
Thanks everyone! I still feel good, so that really helps a lot!! And yes, this is actually one of my pre-pregnancy shirts (only wearing it today because the laundry is a little behind...
).
Don't worry Quail, I have been a little extra sensitive also. I tell my husband that I feel really sorry for the research student I have for the summer. It's normal for students to make a lot of mistakes, but I've been ... ahem... a little less forgiving of her mistakes than I normally would be. Poor girl...

I, personally, would tell her that you're not going to try to hide it, and if she doesn't want to know, she should just not check your registry list and not go to your baby shower. Unfortunately, that's easier said than done! Good luck...
