I F26 and my husband M32 is a compete mommas boy. He’ll call his mother for hours and talk to her and spend time with her more than he does with me. I recently hit my 6 month mark in my pregnancy, and asked my husband to help me get ready with all sorts of things the baby. He said that would interfere with time spent with his mom and replied with “yeah it might, but I need you more right now and would you if you did some other time”. He gave me an offended look and said “you know my mom comes before you”? I was kind of shocked but I explained to him that we just needed to get ready with a few things here and there and that I wouldn’t need more help later in the week. He just ignored me and went to his mom’s house. After a while, she called me and said “I won”, in a snarky voice and I just bite my tongue and said “maybe I’ll win next time”and she hanged up. I could hear my husband laughing in the background and that just angered me for while and I was walking around lifting my fold up upstairs. It hurt like hell, by got it done. I decided to paint the nursery walls another day.

Our anniversary rolls around the corner a couple weeks later and I woke up and got my husband’s gift ready that day and cooked his favorite meal. He came back from work and I was upstairs in the bathroom and he left. I got all eager and happy that he was bringing some sort of surprise and waited in the living room. 30 minutes go by and I call him saying where are you. He replies with “oh I’m at my moms house”. I don’t appreciate what I said about this so don’t go to hard in the comments. “ She might as well be having your kid you clearly seem like your with her”. I hung up the phone and it was probably in speaker phone and minutes later I get a bunch of text from them saying that I shouldn’t be jealous, I shouldn’t respect my mother in law, and that I should maybe find something to do instead of being a bitter asshole. AITA?
