Re: How would you feel...
I would be upset. But it sounds like she was too obtuse to realize it was something that you wanted to be kept private  I would just tell her that you are very private and would prefer if she didn't include things like that in her future newsletters.

Re: How would you feel...

for all of you who said you'd be furious/pizzed...
would you *really* say something to her directly, or would you have DH do it?
I really would like to say something to her about it, but she is SOOOOOOO sensitive and gets her feelings hurt very easily. I don't want to start anything... espcially since we're leaving in a bit to go there for a week 
maybe I should just let it go
I would absolutely say something.
1- she should not write about you without your knowing/permission
2- she has the balls to send it to your mother, but not to you??????????
3- the "no baby yet" comment is so incredibly uncalled for and private - that would have definitely put me over the top.

Re: How would you feel...
She didnt even send you one of these letters? And SHE's sensitive? Then she shouldnt make INSENSITIVE comments about others. I'd have my DH say something after Christmas.
ETA: the no baby yet comment would have put me over the edge and that's why i would definitely say something

 I guess it would depend on what it said. My inlaws sent out that "family update" this year and said it was an uneventful year! UNEVENTFUL there youngest son got married and bought his first house! I could have screamed when my mom read it to me. She got 1 but we didn't Anyways at the very end it says....Joe and Lindi had a beautiful day for their wedding Merry Christmas the Meyers
That's it.....no yea we love her, or what an exciting year. My point...sorry I ramble..is without knowing what was wrote and the content I may or may not be mad. Everybody is different. FM if you want to chat
yea, we never get one of these letters either, but she sends one to my parents & my aunt.
like I said, it wasn't anything super private, but I had some misfortunes this year and I would really have preferred her NOT talking about it to everyone she knows. Oh and the “no baby yet” comment was lovely
WHAT!!!!!??????
You need to stop this now. Tell her in a nice way when you see her. You don't view these topics as public knowledge.

ITA! I would sit down with her and your DH and tell her to her face that it is uncalled for and to back off.
Or
Better yet, send out a letter about her! Along the lines of MY MIL is STILL a B!tch. She does not know when to mind her own business and she still needs to cut the apron strings.

Re: How would you feel...
I wouldn't say anything now, but around October next year I would make sure to say...
"You know that letter you sent out last Christmas? Can you please let me know what you are going to say about us - there are somethings I'd rather keep private."

i am a chicken too - i'd love to be able to tell my MIL off about some things, but i leave it to DH.
if she gets so easily offended, and has no filter, it's not going to make a difference anyway.
and that crack about "no baby yet" would have me STEAMING - how does she know who is or isn't having fertility problems??

Re: How would you feel...
I don't know what the other comment was but the "No baby yet" comment would really upset me. You should have DH say something to her, maybe after your visit or at the end of it.

Re: How would you feel...
first of all, you guys have me  with some of your comments.
I am still debating how to bring it up while we're here visiting.
I think I might just let it go. but then next year, when she's telling me how she's in the middle of writing it, I will ask her in a delicate way to not say anything too private about DH and I.
