In a nutshell:
My mothers long term partners son left his pregnant girlfriend to hook up with a colleague.
Ex girlfriend had baby and DM and partner were supportive; regular visits etc.
I was eager to hear how she was doing and Mother was forthcoming with updates of mom and baby.
My daughter met them a few times and took lots of photos of her little girl.
I was so pleased she was coping well and sent assorted gifts via my mother.
This went on for a year; no feedback from baby's mom, didn't expect any.
About 6 weeks ago I had a massive bargain haul of gorgeous stuff for the baby, I passed it on to DM to give to her when she visited as wasn't suitable for her right now, but too good a bargain to pass on by.Some of the stuff was aged 3, and I asked if she would mind me sending this stuff as it
DM said she had posted it and said nothing more.
I then was told by my DD that this estranged girlfriend had had another baby.
I called my mom ( she never answers the phone now ?? only sends texts)
Mom actually phone to say she had " forgotten" to tell me this fact.
Thing is only a few months ago she mentioned this woman had met a chap and was taking things slowly.
DM is backtracking and telling me things were serious from the start. Am I going mad? Is DM gas lighting or what?
