my MIL and I recently have not been getting along at all. my boyfriend & ihave been together for over 3 years and we have a 5 week old son. Were both not talking to bc she is a nasty, selfish, and ignorant women. Were not letting her see the baby since she cant respect us. and she told my boyfriends brother that she is going to take ME to court (as if its just MY child)...is that ridiculous? not only do i not want her around my children bc shes a *****...but she does drugs, and has a tendency to talk bad about people ALL the time and eventually my son is going to pick up on that & i dont want that. Am I wrong? Can she actually do something about us not letting her see the baby?

Nope. Its almost impossible to get visitation if you are a grandparent, so I wouldn't worry about that. However, your negativity is going to effect your son more than she ever could. Stop the drama, its hard enough to raise a child. And get some sleep, you really sound like you are on edge and the most common problem with being a new mom is lack of sleep. Take care of yourself and congrats on your son.

She can take you to court and she can win visitation rights as this is her grandchild. Also you might want to check the laws in your state as since you are not married and had a baby with your boyfriend she is really not your mother in law so that might hold some weight in court but I doubt it.
