AITAH for not inviting my mom to my baby shower after she kept making comments about my weight
I’m 29 and 7 months pregnant with my first baby. my mom has always been a bit obsessed with appearances but lately it’s gotten unbearable. Every time we talk she says something like “wow you’re really showing” or “better watch those carbs, you’ll regret it later. ” I’ve told her multiple times it hurts my feelings and that I just want to enjoy this pregnancy without feeling judged. She laughs it off and says she’s “just being honest.” So when my friends offered to host a baby shower I told them not to invite her. She found out through my aunt and went nuclear. Called me ungrateful, dramatic, even said I’m “ruining the family bond.” My husband thinks I did the right thing, but now half the family is taking her side. AITAH for not wanting that negativity at my own baby shower?
