My mother-in-law did this as well. Small town talk spreads like wildfire so we no longer have our little secret. I don't know how to tell you to forgive her because I'm still upset as well. I was also 5 weeks exactly when we announced on Christmas and now I'm 6 weeks 2 days... so I literally know exactly what you mean.
Mother in law ruined our baby announcement!
My husband and I are expecting our first baby this August. We are so excited. It's my family's first grandchild/great-grandchild and same for my husband's side. We announced to our (immediate) family only on Christmas with special gifts for everyone! We asked very specifically for them not to tell anyone else yet because I'm so early (only 5 weeks on Christmas, and only 6w1d today!) We had a miscarriage in September 2012, and this is our first time trying to have a baby since, so because of the health concerns we weren't going to make anything public until we reached 12 weeks. We live in a small town and my husband's step mother decided to run her mouth at the town watering hole, and now half of the town knows. I found out by one of my best friends (who I had not shared the news with yet) let me know how she heard!!! I have never been so devastated and angry in my life. I hope God can help me forgive because right now I want nothing to do with her or my husband's dad at all.
