Answers:
1. No, you blew it, totally and completely. Now you must call and apologize. Do not make the mistake of getting in the middle of your mother-in-law's relationship with her son, your husband. It is their business. If she doesn't ring him on his birthday, let HIM decide how he wants to handle it. It is none, repeat, none of your business.
You will regret stirring up more strife in the family. Like it or not, you married into this family and your mother-in-law is not going anywhere. Your job is to be civil and polite, and to set an example of classiness and grace. DON'T make the mistake of mixing it up with her or creating arguments.
2. depends how well your husbands gets on with her.....
you may have strained things for him, and made life a little harder.
I know my family are big into birthdays..... when we were kids my mum would make our birthdays last a week...
my husbands family were the opposite..... they'd be lucky to have a party, and nodays he's lucky to get a card!...
Doesn't mean she doesn't love him...
As for your son though that's a bit harsh especially if he's young!
I would have done the same thing as you, but I do those kind on things and don't think of the consequences of my actions!
GOODLUCK!
3. It's ok. It's not like there's any love loss between you and her.
