So my mom and sister planed my baby shower for a weekend that ss was only ment to be with us till sat afternoon because as everyone knows skids dont like it when they are not the center of attention.My mom told mil that ss needs to go back to his mother because DH just arrived back in the country and this was about us(my family has the baby shower for the couple as its also about dad)and about our son on the way.

but lo and behold mil pitched up with ss after we took him back that afternoon but not just ss with bm to as mil felt bm should be there as this will be ss brother I was so pissed off DH was very upset and told them to leave as this was for us and she is not welcome at my parents place.MIL told DH that this shouldnt be an issue as bms other kids are her grandkids to and he should treat all of them like they are family to him. I said the only person that is apart of the family is ss, bm and her other kids are nothing to us.

What the HELL? Are you saying that your MIL brought SS AND BM to your baby shower?

That is so inappropriate my head is about to explode.

Can somebody explain to me why BM would want to be there? I don't even want to attend the baby showers of friends when I am invited. I can't imagine anything more awkward than attending my ex husband's new wife's baby shower. Why why why?

Exactly what I was thinking - why would BM want to go? You couldn't pay me to go to an ex's baby shower.

I cannot believe your MIL had the gall to do that. That's rude as hell. If BM ever had even the slightest idea of coming to my shower - or MIL thinking to bring her- I'd be livid!

If FMIL ever did something like this, she can kiss her grandkids from me goodbye, if I'll even let her close enough to do it. Thankfully, FDH will completely support me in that decision, and good luck of ever having him talk to his mother again.

That is completely uncalled for, rude, and stupid.

I'm still on the fence if she would ever do it (you never know) but at least FDH has warned her.
