frequent fry her - Outsider DIL Frequent Fry Her TM. - The Outsider DIL/Posted: 30-JAN-10
MIL told me to put my belongings (including things I had bought for my unborn child) in a storage unit that she hadn't been making payments on.  No one, other than MIL, was aware of this at the time.  I was told to do this, rather than moving my stuff into her house, when she told her son to move me in with them.  She told me that I didn't have to pay her for it.  Believe me, I asked repeatedly if I needed/could pay for the storage unit.  My apartment was considered substandard by the city, and I was 7 months pregnant with my DD at the time.  Then, she lied to both DH and me for over a year about it.  I found out about 6 months after the fact, when I finally called the facility.  They told me that the unit had been "removed".  I, however, knew that DH wouldn't believe me, as he was still VERY entrenched with his mother, and believed every word that came out of her mouth.  When DH and FIL found out that she had lost the unit (which also had things from DH's childhood), she lied again, making up some sob story about how she had lost some china.  She also did some fake crying.  Note:  The china turned up about 3 years later, and was given to her sister for Christmas, after she commented to SIL and SIL's mom that she was so glad she hadn't lost it.  I was furious.  After my baby shower for my DD, she refused to allow us to take the gifts from the shower out of her bedroom.  I snuck in one day and moved them to the room, at the other end of the house, with the rest of the stuff I had bought for DD.  The day I brought DD home from the hospital, FIL told me that he was "so happy" that I'd "had a girl" because it meant that he didn't "have to have another kid".  When DD was a newborn, MIL went through her clothes and separated out anything she didn't like, including clothes that had been mine when I was a baby.  She took these clothes and hid them in a closet in another bedroom.  She was going to throw them out later.  Fortunately for me, I was still at home with my DD, at this point, on maternity leave, and had been told to clean the spare bedroom out because MIL's sister and her DH were coming into town and needed to sleep in there.  I had hung some of my DD's dresses in that closet.  I happened to glance down, and there was a diaper box.  When I pulled it out, I found it heavy.  So, I opened it, and there were the missing clothes.  I had noticed things going missing for a bit.  However, I had attributed it to being a sleep deprived new parent.  I said something to my DH.  When he asked her about it, she whined in a child like fashion, "But I wanted you guys to use the new stuff."  This was in addition to her acting like I was not my DD's mother, she was.  Keep in mind that I was barely 20, and had to get most things secondhand.  I had a pack of onesies that were new, and that was about it.  I also had a brand new red onesie that my GM had bought.  MIL thinks that when a female wears red, it makes you a whore.  When my DD passed away from SIDS, MIL tried to keep me from being a part of the funeral planning.  She didn't even allow me to look at her obituary.  The obituary didn't mention any of my family, whereas it mentioned her family almost exclusively.  When the death certificates came from the coroner, she took them and hid them before my father came the next morning.  This way, he could not see them.  She also did her level best to sweep my DD under the rug, and act as if she had never existed.  She told me that if she had known certain details of my heritage, that my child was of a particular descent, she would have had her on a monitor from the day she was born.  She made other statements that inferred that it was me and my genetics that killed our DD.
