๐Ÿ‘€ MIL trying to poison me.

I'm convinced now that my mil has been trying to poison me. Let me know if I'm going crazy. There have been a number of occasions where I've gotten this intuitive uneasy feeling.

The first time was when I was pregnant. I had cut all communication with her prior for some years because she threaten to "smack me in the back of my head" during a car ride with my husband. She called early in the morning while I was trying to rest to offer me some lasagna she made. Mind you she doesn't eat lasagna or anything with beef or tomatoes because she has chrons disease ๐ŸšฉI ignored the call so she calls my husband while he's at work to bother him about this. I told him I didn't want lasagna because my heart burn has been through the roof so I'm avoiding tomatoes. She flips on him and accuses me of holding on to the past. Why are you cooking something you don't eat and getting mad when I don't want to eat it?

Another time was when her and a friend went to a restaurant and ordered spring rolls. She didn't finish them so she gave them to my husband to give to me. When he got home she called him to ask if I ate them๐Ÿšฉ๐Ÿšฉ. Why? ๐Ÿ‘€ I didn't of course. She calls back again the next day to ask if I ate them ๐Ÿšฉ.

Most recently she gives my husband something else she she supposedly doesn't eat, that I like. Why are you cooking and/or buying something you don't eat and then giving it to me?

It's a huge red flag for me that you are giving me stuff that you aren't consuming yourself, checking if I ate it and getting mad when I don't. Especially if you don't like me.

Am I crazy? Could I be on to something?

Your onto something! Don't eat nothing she gives to your husband. What does your husband has to say?

Avatar

I haven't said anything to him because he's not going to see his mom for the evil person she is.

What is her cultural background? Also yes she is trying to poison you who the hell calls directly about spring rolls.

Always eat before seeing her.
Bring food when you come to your house.
Make up a fake illness where you can't eat most foods on top of your crohns.
Put up a security camera in the kitchen and invite her over to make some baked foods or ask for help with food if you can catch her on camera doing this go to the police.

A man on the news had bleach put in his coffee by his wife a few years back and he had to pretend to drink the coffee so she wasn't suspicious and he eventually caught it on camera.

Your husband won't believe you until you have evidence. He will be upset for accusing his mother. Play dumb and catch her on camera

Shoot me a message if you need any support through this

Get him to eat it first ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’€ or tell her that nah you didnโ€™t but hubby is currently eating it .. just to see her reaction.

She's from the south in an area where I know they have a history of voodoo. I've heard of women putting their blood in red sauces to do voodoo on people. I don't put it past her.

Ah that's a good ideal lol. I have very minimal communication with her so she'll actually ask him if I ate something, which is even stranger

Poison or not youโ€™re never suppose accept things from negative people. Directly to the trash! How nice it would bebe if you could actually have it tested tho ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

Spring rolls are so random! How many were there? Two? Ten? Of all the food you would bring home, why those?! And why did she call your husband TWICE to ask if youโ€™d eaten them? That is bizarre! I mean who gives someone takeaway food and pesters them if they ate it ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

Yea donโ€™t eat anything from her. It could be nothing but why risk it. Does your husband eat it if you donโ€™t? I assume sheโ€™s not trying to poison him

It's definitely very weird.
You could try one of three things:
1. Pretend you ate it and then pretend you got sick from it and ask your husband to ask her what she put in it and see how she reacts etc.
2. Throw it out and then call her and tell her your husband ate it and ask what was in it, implying he is sick and see how she reacts etc.
3. Actually encourage your husband to eat it and see if he gets sick and even if he doesn't get sick still contact her about what she put in it because your husband ate it.
These are all obviously set ups to see how she reacts, which will hopefully tell you her intent.
Personally, I would do 2 because I think it will make her respond immediately if it is poisoned and also because then obviously your husband wont be hurt. Then maybe he will actually believe how bad she is

Iโ€™d definitely tell her that her son ate it instead and see what she does.

Avatar

I've heard that. I'm debating on telling my husband to stop giving me her food because I don't eat food from people who don't like me. But that'll probably start drama ๐Ÿ™„

Exactly! ๐Ÿšฉ๐Ÿšฉ๐Ÿšฉ

Avatar

In those situations it was food that was given just to me or something he doesn't eat (i.e. vietnamese food or slim Jim's, etc.) ๐Ÿšฉ๐Ÿšฉ๐Ÿšฉ

Yea definitely SUS. Sorry you have to deal with this. ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

itโ€™s not OP that has crohns, itโ€™s her MIL

ohh I thought she maybe had chrons before meeting her but yes poisoning would definitely give someone stomach issues

not enough likes in the world for this evil genius plan ๐Ÿคฃ

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
Iโ€™m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesnโ€™t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, donโ€™t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if Iโ€™m wrong but Iโ€™ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA ๐Ÿ™‚

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. Itโ€™s gotten to the point I donโ€™t even bring him out unless itโ€™s to a doctors appointment. Iโ€™m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. Weโ€™ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when heโ€™s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

Hi ladies Iโ€™m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. Iโ€™m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. Iโ€™d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. ๐Ÿฉต
