My Mother-in-Law Thinks I Should Prove That Her Son Is Our Baby's Father. This Is Beyond.
Briefly

A woman faces severe tension with her mother-in-law, Tracy, who has tried to control her life, including wedding planning. After having a son, Tracy spreads a damaging rumor that the child is not her son's. The woman fears that refusing a DNA test validates the rumor, while agreeing to it feels like succumbing to blackmail. The husband has spoken to Tracy but she continues her toxic behavior. The recommendation is to cease all contact with her to protect the family and ensure a stable environment for their child.
There's nothing you can do to stop someone who is vile and toxic enough to make up such a hurtful rumor. The best thing you can do, at this point, is to go no contact with her for good.
Your husband will have to decide what that means for his own relationship with her and the two of you need to figure out an agreement regarding her access to your child.
I personally would not trust this woman with my kid after she went so far as to lie about your husband not being the father.
