I need to be told I ambu as deep down I know I probably am. My feelings are probably clouded by other issues with mil. Basically my mum always treats all the family equally. Ie she spends same on me and dh and our 2 dds. Mil has always spent more on dh and dd1 (her favourite 1stgranddaughter). as dd2 is young I understood this. (say twice as much on dh and dd1 ) His family also exchange lists of gifts they would like. dh always has frivolous things on there.
So this year has been hard for mil healthwise. Dh has spent time supporting her leaving me to pick up slack with our young children. I was absolutely happy for him to do this.
So mil rang wanting to speak to dh. She had some news but wanted to share with dh 1st. again fair enough. In passing she mentioned thatshe was going to be spending £200 on dh for xmas as he has helped her so much. Again fair enough her choice. However, later dh told me thay she was only paying for half of dd2 gift. I may be reading too much into it but dd2 wasn't planned and I can't help feeling abit cross about this. She is I believe spending more on dd1.
So snap me out of it and tell me Iabu
