What to do about a rude sister in law?

Well, my sister in law has been in my life for about 7 years (married to husbands brother) I never had a problem with her until her true colors started showing. If I do something simple like buy something for my child that they need..she runs to my mother in law gossips about it and makes fun of me....because of the color I chose, or brand, or something stupid..it's all stupid things. When she found out I was pregnant she asked me if I was excited..I said yes because we were trying for a while. She went ahead and told everyone I was trying for a long time and got a laugh out of it because I didn't get pregnant right away. It's foolish petty stuff. It's like whatever you talk to her about one day, everyone else knows your business the next..personal stuff or not. I just don't know how to handle her anymore..I don't know what to do. We all live in the same community so I just don't know anymore!
 
First speak to your husband about if you do something will it mess his relationship up with his brother. But I would be pissed. Tell her to keep her mouth shut or better embarrass her. When you speak to her or do anything with her make sure you keep saying is this going to be told to everyone or I bet I will here everyone talking about this once you open your mouth. You might be able to make her stop by making little comments every time she comes around. Good Luck!
