I just need to vent/rant and if anyone has any advice or similar experience please give me some advice.

So my husband and I met when we were 12, we are best friends and we started dating when we were 18, we are now 27.

I'm pregnant with our first child , my mom wants to throw a baby shower but a non traditional one , basically one where we all just come together to eat cake, laugh and that's it more like a Tea and cake.

I don't have alot of friends just 1 apart from my husband. My MIL keeps telling my mom that she should plan it because she wants to invite all her friends and she wants my husband to go out of town with all the men.

I told her that I don't want her friends there because all of them always comment on my weight, and they all are just really rude people , my mom isn't English and they keep making fun of her accent and I don't tolerate that. I also want my husband with me because it's his baby too and I just want a gathering where we can all laugh and spend time together.

My dad took time of work to be there and then I won't even see him because he works far from home and MIL wants no men.

My mom told my MIL that she will plan it and that's final , now MIL is mad because we invited one of my mom's friends. Please note, that friend of my mom helped me through a lot and she was always there when I needed help , as where my MIL always told me to grow up and "it's part of pregnancy"

I feel like just cancelling everything but I don't know what to do
