This matching the kundlis of the boy and girl before getting married is not enough – one should have the kundlis of the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law matched to know whether the matrimony is going to be heavenly or not.

This bond between two women is undeniably full of flavours –  chillies, honey, lemons and definitely some ‘calm the hell down’ potion in order to have the best of it.

Just like a husband and wife, a lot changes in this M-I-L-D-I-L equation  when the baby comes into the picture. And just like our moms, M-I-Ls have their 2 (hundred) cents to give in this situation as well!

Let’s look at some typical mom-in-law reactions:

 

1. When she is given the news that she is soon going to be a grandmother

2. When she immediately announces – no matter what that she will decide the name of the child. *mic drop*. You look at your husband and he runs for cover because he knows a nuclear war is coming!

3. She has a long list of gender prediction methods – “ If your belly is upright, it’s a girl, if the belly hangs low, it is a boy”;
“if you eat more salty food, it’s a boy, if you eat more sugar, it’s a girl”. eye roll

4. She wakes you up every morning because the person you look at most is what the baby will look like. Father of Human Genetics, Gregor Johann Mendel, can go die another death, because genes?? Who cares about ‘em?

5. She sneaks in food for your cravings because she loves you, and also because – “Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu thi” —

6. If you have a toddler, she is likely to tell adorable stories to the tot about how the new baby will be born – yes, by magic!!

7. And then she will lose her mind over the picture of your bump shared on Social media.

8. And you thought she won’t find out?? – You should have reconsidered accepting your ‘mother-in-law’s sister’s daughter’s cousin’s’ friend request.

9. Either ways, one can’t deny their love and concern for us, even if it is heightened only during pregnancy. So while you receive all the attention, make sure you make the best of it!!
