Woman's Mother-in-Law Moves in During Her Pregnancy, Says She Is 'Not Making My Pregnancy Pleasant'
Now, she's worried she made the wrong decision by agreeing to allow the woman to live with her and her husbandNEED TO KNOW A woman who will soon give birth says she was initially excited for the extra help when her mother-in-law moved in — but now, her husband's mom is making life awful In a post on Reddit, she details how the woman is being overbearing throughout her pregnancy Now, she's worried she made the wrong decision by agreeing to allow the woman to live with her and her husbandA woman who will soon give birth says she was initially excited for the extra help when her mother-in-law moved in — but now, her husband's mom is making life awful. In a post shared to Reddit, the woman details how she had only met her mother-in-law five times before the woman moved in, due to her living in China. From her post: "I have become advanced in spoken Chinese and I have spent years studying both the language and the culture. I am pregnant and will be giving my son a Chinese middle name and raising him in the culture. My MIL will be watching him when I go back to work. In return she lives with us and we cover all of her expenses." But the experience is not going as planned, with the woman noting that her mother-in-law is "not making my pregnancy pleasant."

"She is constantly giving me comments about how I shouldn't be drinking cold water or eating cold food because I will kill my baby," she writes. "She thinks he will die if I am too happy, or too anything. I have gently told her that constant feedback of this type makes me anxious but it has not stopped. I am triggered by it as I have had a prior miscarriage and she knows it." She continues: "I do my best speaking Chinese with her, but she often enters the room and interrupts a conversation my husband and I are having to speak to him in a dialect I don't speak. I know she's talking about me because I recognize my name in this dialect." She adds that her mother-in-law invites herself on her dates with her husband, and the two are now struggling to have alone time. "My husband doesn't want to be the middle guy, which I respect, but I do wish he would stand up for me or set boundaries," she adds. She continues: "I am [empathetic] to her situation, I truly am, and I feel terrible that I'm so upset. But I am grieving the pregnancy I wanted to have. This is very bad for my mental health and for my marriage. I don't know what to do. It feels like nothing I want matters." Other Reddit users are urging the woman to stand up for herself, with one writing: "I suggest you let yourself be the bad guy. Step into your own power. Do not be polite when she makes weird comments. Tell her that you would prefer to go on your date alone. You will feel a lot better once you stand up for yourself - better even than if your husband did it (which he should do anyways..)." Read the original article on People

Mother's 'idiotic' baby name leaves people in disbelief as people warn 'school will be hell' for her child
A pregnant woman has come under fire online after choosing a very unusual name for her unborn baby - as some people warn her child will endure 'hell' at school. The bizarre moniker was revealed in a now-viral Reddit post by the expectant mother's cousin, from the US, who admitted they were completely baffled and felt compelled to share the name choice with the world. Originally the mother had planned to call her baby girl Serena, but at the last minute done a U-turn and choose 'Vaselinea'. The women sent her cousin a picture of a tube of the petroleum jelly Vaseline and asked 'like this thing?' To which the mother-to-be replied: 'Yes, I wanted the nia sound at the end. Pronounced like Vah-suh-lee-nia.' The cousin captioned the post, which racked up over 22,000 likes: 'One of my older cousins sent this to me…I'm sorry but Vaselinea?? 'Is Vaselinea a tragedeigh? How do I convince her to go back to choosing the name Serena?' People online wasted no time in voicing their opinions - which were scathing to say the least. Many begged the cousin to step in and convince the expectant mother to reconsider, warning that little Vasalinea could face years of bullying and embarrassment. One person said: 'Well, at least petroleum jelly is a completely innocent and innocuous product with nothing but robust moisture sealing applications, so you know, what's the worst that could happen? High school is gonna be real rough.' Another added: 'For the love of everything please show her the subreddit. Even if it hurts her it will show her how idiotic that decision is about to be. 'Is the dude [referring to the father] an idiot too? Like there is no way this decision gets the green light by both parties.' Another added: 'The moment my cousins started having kids we had this conversation before the kid was born. I wasn't going to have a family member end up getting bullied because their parents gave them a 'unique name'.' A fourth person discussed the ways in which Vaseline can be used in sex - which would open up the child to ridicule in later life. Another quipped: 'The pronunciation sent me! Yes, it's spelled like Vaseline with 'a' on the end, but it's pronounced like Vaseline with 'ai' on the end.' The original poster added: 'I also tried suggesting a name like Sonia since she wanted a 'nia' sound at the end but according to her its not elegant sounding enough and she needs a name that will stick with someone when they hear it.' It comes after an unsuspecting woman's decision to name her firstborn 'Jobie' has left Scots in hysterics as they pointed out the word's unfortunate slang meaning. Last week, Laura Rogers, believed to be from the UK, shared a sweet video of her newborn on TikTok while announcing her son had been christened Jobie. 'Oh Jobie, mummy loves you so much,' the gushing mother captioned her clip. She later shared her son's 'first outfits of the week' - with both videos racking up over 520,000 views at the time of writing. A majority of these came from TikTok users based in Scotland who couldn't understand why Laura had picked the name considering that 'jobbie' is slang for faeces or a 'piece of excrement' in response to the viral video. 'So, somebody's named their kid "Jobie" and if you're Scottish, you'll know exactly what a jobbie is,' a woman from Scotland, @rachdeex on TikTok, reacted to Laura's name reveal video. She added: 'I wasn't sure whether or not to comment and say that 'you do know that a 'jobbie' is a poo.' The woman could also be overheard asking a toddler whether they knew what a 'jobbie' meant before the two-year-old confirmed it was, indeed, 'a poo-poo'. The search for 'baby jobie' on TikTok returns multiple reaction videos from baffled Scots who can't understand why the name is trending in 2025. 'POV: you've woken up this morning to people calling their babies Jobie in 2025. Scottish descend,' one user, who goes by @viennicevero, captioned her post. Another Scottish woman, Laura, said it was 'a bloody shame' that the baby name 'Jobie' was gaining in popularity. She also claimed that the English woman, who went viral for her original post, was 'deleting' comments about the origins of the word. 'A jobbie in Scotland is a shite,' she explained. 'There obviously has been loads of Scottish people commenting on her post to say "By the way, I don't know if you've got time to change your baby's name but jobbie actually means shite." 'And she's been deleting all the comments,' she continued. 'The wee boy is absolutely beautiful, he just does not deserve a name like Jobie.' In response, some suggested it was fair for Laura to delete any hateful comments about her son's name since she is a 'young mom who doesn't need any criticism' at this stage in her life. Still another Scottish TikToker suggested they were just trying to be helpful by letting the new mum know her son's name has a double-meaning in their part of the world, adding there was no ill intent. Several people, however, defended the British woman's decision to name her son 'Jobie' because the word means 'nothing outside of Scotland'. 'Ignore all the bored Scottish people giving you flack about his name,' one TikTok commented on the first-time mother's video. 'It's lovely. 'If you're not Scottish or living there, who gives a f,' they continued. 'He's beautiful.' 'Literally no one cares, it's not even pronounced like that,' another person said. A school teacher in England also weighed in on the debate taking TikTok by storm as she declared: 'The word "jobbie" means nothing outside of Scotland. 'I work in a Catholic school in England and have taught three Jobes. 'Literally not a single kid has made fun of it because that word means nothing here.' Some TikTokers pointed out that the newborn's name was pronounced 'joe-bee' and not 'jobby or jobbie' like it would be in Scotland, implying the baby's name doesn't really translate to its slang meaning.
