'I threw a shower for myself': Expecting parents ban 'delusional' MIL from seeing baby
There are lots of details that go into planning a baby shower. It's a joyous celebration of expecting parents-to-be. Showers are usually thrown by those close to the pregnant person, like their friends, family members, or coworkers. It's all about the new baby and the mom---people bring cute presents and play baby-themed games. Sometimes the parties are even a surprise. No matter how they're arranged, baby showers are meant to celebrate the mom's pregnancy journey and the upcoming arrival of a new little human. Plus, having a baby is not cheap. Being gifted diapers, bottles, clothes, or toys is really helpful for new parents who are just starting out.
That's why this expecting couple was so stunned when their MIL decided to make the baby shower day all about herself. The story is a wild ride from start to finish. Commenters gave the OP, u/Awkward_Nerve6154, and her husband some helpful advice, and she responded in a follow-up comment. For a MIL this crazy, there might not be a way to come back from pulling a stunt like that. She was probably so busy thinking about herself that she never considered what the consequences of her actions would be.
