    aaah! my mother in law has more or less just anounced to facebook that im pregnant! She just left my h2b a coment saying congratulations we're all so happy for u! There are about 6 people so far who know about the change of date to the wedding so everyone is going to asume im pregnant! ok there right but its not the point im only arount 5 weeks. My h2b is currently in afghan and has no computer acess so cant delete it and I dont know his password. I text her saying basicly what are u doing and she text back sayin im aloud to congratulate my son! WTF?!!

    sil did this to us on our engagement, put it on facebook before I had told my own brother and sister, I got her to delete it. Cant you not explain to her you dont want people to know until you pass 12 weeks and can she not congratulate him in a less public way?

    Oh thats not fair.Its down to you and h2b to announce your pregnancy when and where you see fit.I know i never wanted anyone to know until after my first scan and i think thats the same with a lot of people.I think its very thoughtless of her to 'out' you like this.i would ask him for his password when he calls so that you can access his account and block her posts! xxx

    Personally I think she is a bit bang out of order, as its a) not her place to say anything before you have had a chance to tell people and b) most people like to wait until they are 12weeks before accouncing it publicly, just to be on the safe side. Id kill my MIL if she did this when I was pregnant with my 2. Just ignore her and talk to your H2B when/if you get the chance as it aint on. xx

    OMG I'd go mad if my mil did that to me! i agree with the other girls, try and get your h2b's password off him when you next speak to him so you can delete her comment. That is bang out of order! Mil's can be such pains in the ar*e!

    if i was you i would text her back saying of course you can congratulate him but please do it in a private message rather then post it on his wall to announce to the whole of facebook i would ask her to delete the message and send him a private one in its place a its to early to tell anybody and you want to wait till you and h2b are ready to tell people

    She could of done it on a private message rather than posting on his wall for all to see. It's your news not hers to tell, and you 2 should tell people when you both know the time is right. When I was pregnant with both mine I never told anyone apart from family until I had my scan and knew all was ok.
    I'd go mad if my mil did it to me.

    I can understand that she is excited for the both of you, but she needs to respect your wishes to keep it quiet until you both want everyone to know. I would call her again and tell her this is upsetting you and you want her to delete it straightaway.

    I'd go mental if someone did that to me, fair enough she's excited but it's your business to announce when you're ready, not hers to blab to the world on the internet! Give it another go trying to get her to see your point of view, but sounds like she's not going to be reasonable, so unless you can get on to your h2b's account to delete it, you might just have to ignore it, don't respond to anyone who asks you about it until you're ready!

    What an insensitive woman!!!! If I was you I would call her up and demand her to take it down immediately! Is she doesn't tell her that it is your decision why and how you announce your good news and has nothing to do with her. If all else feels Pull the " you'll have nothing to do with the baby routine" should get her to back down as a last resort xxx

    shes a nightmare. I would go mad. surely hubby to be would want the TWO OF YOU to announce the happy news yourself in YOUR WAY and surely he wouldnt want this information on his fb wall like this. Phone her up and say that her son would go mad if he found out this happy news has been shared in such an insensitive way and that you are both more than happy to congratulate him but privately for the time being until you can annouce the news in a much more joyous and celebratory way.

    cant wait to be Mrs Evans less than 3 weeks woooo
    start weight 10st 1.5 lbs

    I really feel for you chick, that's really unthoughtful of her, if she's really bothered about yours and your h2b's feelings she would delete it. If any1 asks you what she mean's just tell them a little white lie and say she's just congratulating you because you've set a new date for the wedding x
