I have been in a similar situation as far as the mother-in-law goes. My now ex-mother-in-law was usually nice to my face and then ALWAYS talked about me behind my back. My ex-husband used to stand up for me so that helped, but I learned just to keep my distance and only go around her when I had too.
She never gave my daughter attention unless other people were around, and then when my son was born he got even less attention. She has just now started to pay attention to both kids since me and my ex have divorced.
I would say that if your boyfriend is talking bad about you then something needs to be done right away. If he loves you he wouldn't talk like that about you. I would suggest sitting him down and telling him how you feel, and if that doesn't work then consider leaving him.
My ex left 2 days before our son was born, and I had no idea we had problems, but it has turned out to be the best thing. So don't stick it out for the kids....Only stick it out if you both want to be together and if he is willing to stop being such a jerk to you.

Your boyfriend is enjoying the attention he is getting from his mother. It is very sad that he resorts to talking about his own wife just to get her attention. If I were you, I would put the kids to bed and have a serious talk with him. Calmly tell him that it hurts you for him to talk negatively about you. It is disrespectful to you, the mother of his children. In the beginning, I had trouble with my in-laws (I'd go into detail, but it's a LONG story), but I managed to work it out. I hope you can work this out, too. If at all possible, you may need to go to counseling of some sort because he may not see that what he is doing is wrong. I wish you the best of luck...

Be there for her and attempt and get her to chat to her mothers and fathers... via her chatting with them supplies her greater thoughts on wether or no longer she desires to maintain it or perhaps adoption she has greater thoughts now than she would be able to later. Her mothers and fathers will discover out finally in basic terms determine it somewhat is to no longer late. And be a reliable pal and attempt and help/handbook her to make the thoughts she needs and not what absolutely everyone "needs" her to do by using fact she am has to handle it in a protracted time in existence no rely what she makes a decision... and prefer the lady till now reported her mothers and fathers will advance to the assumption and specific there's an excellent gamble they are going to loose it however the will no longer harm her or the toddler. So motivate her to make her judgements which will earnings her interior the top.

He and his mother both need to grow up and act like adults. You need to tell him that the 2 of you and your kids including are a team, he should never talk crap about you and should always stick up for you. I've been in situations similar where I felt like my boyfriend and his family were almost ganging up on me when he should have been on my side. It hurts and it's hard. it's even worse when you treat them better than their own family does. Maybe he's doing it for his mothers acceptance...freaking men! Good luck hun:o)

o.k.
Let's be real. YOU must put yourself in his space.
It is not about you.
YOU will never make your husband not like his mom.
YOU must become the cheerleader for his mom.
YES trust me. YOU don't want to come in between his
mom and him.
YOU will earn his respect when YOU decide to accept his
mother.
JUST ask yourself this question: Would you want another
women coming between YOU and your son?
Accept his mom and say nothing but nice things about
her, you win. NO Matter what. .. Take the high road.
Question answered.

you shoud confront your man and tell him how you feel... he has that key that can make it all go away. he should realise who was there putting food on the table when she would not care... tell him that you and your son are just as important. tell him to be a MAN.
good luck hon xx

talk to his mom in a daughter in law to mother in law way how this is making you feel and ask her why she is this way...maybe shes like this because she feels like you've taken her precious son away from her(you know...sorta like marie and debra on everybody loves raymond-that seems realistic) or maybe she feels as if her son made a mistake marrying you. but ask her the reason for this attitude towards you and tell her why you feel it is wrong. talk to her one on one and same with your husband and then talk to them both. =] hope i was of any help =]

Why are you still having kids with him as your boyfriend? If after the first one he wouldn't marry you, move on. Now with the 3rd one on the way, you are really stuck. Talk to them. Talk to him. Talk to your mom.
Figure out how to move on with your life and still have him part of his kids life.
