[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That email is OK but I still think its giving too much.

"Bertha, 
It is so nice to hear you are excited that we are getting ready to start a family! Our future child will be so lucky to have you as a grandma.  I hope you can understand, though, that we'd like to table the baby discussions until there is an actual baby on the horizon.  Trying to conceive is an intense time and I don't want to put any more pressure on myself than I already feel. Rest assured you will be the first (well, second :) to know when there is any news.  Until then, please understand if we don't want to share every detail about what we are going through.  
All my love, 
DIL

And after you write this email, OP, stop telling your MIL about your plans!!!! You kind of opened the door for this and you need to learn how to close it before it gets out of hand. You know who your MIL is and she's not going to change, so it's up to you and DH to decide how much you want to let her in. [/quote]

I disagree that this one is better.  Too much personal information in it.
