I caught my SIL trying to breastfeed my baby. When I confronted her, my husband defended her, saying it was “the only way to calm him.” But she wasn’t even lactating — it was a violation. Horrified, I took my baby and went to my mom’s.
That’s when my mom confessed she’d once dry-nursed my newborn, trying to cope with her own miscarriage. I was devastated. My husband still dismissed it, so I filed for divorce. His family didn’t take me seriously, but I’ll never forget the betrayal.
