I have a vent/annoyance (long)

I have 2 BFFs, L & T. L is pregnant. T & I discussed throwing her baby shower but did not want to step on L's mom's toes.

So T called L's mom and asked her if she had plans for the shower. L's mom said she would love to be involved but would really like T & I to take the reins. Wonderful. So we discuss a few things.

Immediately I contacted L's MIL to inform her of the plans and ask her to be involved. 

Well L told me yesterday that her MIL approached her and said she was upset that T & I are throwing the shower and she feels like this is HER grandchild and the shower should be thrown by her and L's mom. blah blah blah blah

The kicker here is that I have spoken to her and T also has had that exact conversation with her and it was left settled and atken care of. We 100% planned to have her involved. Rather than team up with us she is getting all butt hurt about it. 

I am very upset about this. #1 she should not have brought that issue to L. If there is a problem, call T or myself. Why stress L out about this?

#2 We did not do this to be malicious, we wanted to do something nice for L. 

 

I feel like arranging a meeting with T, myself, and L's mom and MIL to discuss all of this and make sure we work as a team and get it all out in the open and solve the issues. I feel horrible.

    Yes I think that's a great idea.

    That really sucks! I think that sitting down and talking about it with everyone is a good idea. Get everyone on the same page, especially since this was supposed to be something nice for your friend. GL!

    Can L not have more than one shower? Like one that her friends throw for other friends and one her MIL throws for whomever she wants to invite? I had 3 different showers with 3 different groups of friends.
