[quote=Anonymous]I'm further afield, OP and agree with PPs that you need to go gray rock (learned that term here) and not share these details. If DH wants to engage and share with his mother, fine, but you make an effort not to engage. At all. Most DH don't overshare and tend not to be as hyperaware of these details. The stakes get higher and more competitive! In my situation, my sainted SIL became BFFs (using that term because it fits) with my MIL. Shopping trips, daily phone conversations, elaborate babysitting and carpool arrangements, visits back and forth. MIL talked non stop to me about SIL and her children and every milestone and fun time, etc. Tons of comparisons, too - MIL enjoyed pointing out differences in our houses, personal styles, you know, very personal things. Now, SIL is divorced from BIL and estranged from MIL. Now MIL still talks non stop about these grandchildren but couched in they are doing so well despite the divorce...[/quote]
