I recently found out that my sister n law had made a comment about me and my husband. She told my parents that if I were to get pregnant that my husband would leave me. First off this isn't true well I mean I am not pregnant so who's to say for sure but I am pretty confident he wouldn't, we have a great marriage. The point is she said it. If I tell her where I heard this it is going to start a war with my family so I don't know wether to just leave it alone or talk to her about it. What should I do?

This is my brother's wife. And my sister told me b/c her and I are best of friends and we tell each other everything. I know my sister and she did not tell me this to hurt me she was telling me to make sure I watch my back...

She is married to MY BROTHER, NOT MY HUSBANDS. and I know that my husband would not leave me.

Ignore it. The comment isn't worth the breath it took her to say it especially if it's gonna start a family war.
Only you and your husband know what goes on in your marriage & she is only speculating anyway & just trying to cause trouble.
You can be above all that & go on about your business. But from here on out, beware of your relationship with her.

You need to confront your husband. It is his sister that said it. Where did she get this from? You say you are not sure if he would leave you if you got pregnant. In between the lines there is more than you are saying.
You can't say you have a great marriage if there is a doubt that he would leave you if you were pregnant.
Don't involve your parents in this, it isn't any of anyone's business except you and your husband. Go ask him.............

unless it just causes you to loose sleep and is a great issue with you, I would just ignore it all..... I have a sis n law that is the kind, if she is misserable everyone else should be too.... I would just let sleeping dogs lie..... they may get fleas, but that is their problem..... be sweet and kind and smile...... that will make her wonder just what is in your little head.... families tend to have times that they go thru jealousy and stress and all... maybe she has a underlying problem that she is transforming into YOUR life...... maybe she has a husband that may leave...... that is sad and troubling, but some ppl just do not want to face their own problems so the create trouble for others to take the focus off themselves......... God bless

I'm questioning why someone would tell you that she said it. She's obivously a jealous person who thrives on the drama. I wouldn't trust her with anything important from now on. I would say something to your husband that his sister (I assume it's his sister?) is saying these types of things about the two of you. Maybe he knows the type of person she really is and wouldn't be at all surprised. Ignore her, apparently she wants the drama and the war. I know the type well.

You should say something to her. What business is it of hers if you get pregnant. You dont need to reveal your source but let her know you someone told you that she said this and you want to clear the air. Your married to her brother so you are all family now so clear the air set her straight to keep her opinions to herself and move on from there. She'll respect you for talking to her.

well then make a comment that if your sister in law gets pregnant she will pop like a balloon and her husband would leave her...
PS>>KEEP THE COMMENT TO YOURSELF AND TELL YOUR OWN MOTHER no need to ignite world war 3!!

Dont approach her on it. If she knows you know make a snide comment about you being a single mother. Send her the message that she cant treat you that way. Give her a warning.

Talk to her alone. Tell her that you have always accepted her into your family and it was really hurtful what she said. Say firmly that she either aplogize or no longer contact you. Who needs people like that in their life?
Best wishes,
Nikki

Leave it alone unless it happens over and over again. How many times in your life have you said something that came out wrong or you didn't really mean.

Well you said it. You have a great marriage. Don't give her the satisfaction of driving a wedge between you two
