[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If she goes in a roundabout way, just smile and ignore. If she or someone else asks you directly, just say, "we're hoping for the best!" or something generic like that. Then quickly switch topics. Don't engage.[/quote] Don't say "we're hoping for the best" or anything else that indicates you may be trying, because with each passing month MIL will assume you're having fertility problems, start feeling sorry and worried for you, suggesting REs, etc. When people asked us if we planned to have kids (nobody ever asked if we were actively TTC), I'd always just say "maybe," and change the subject.
