My sister is driving me crazy!!

[adlove]

So I told my sister that I'm pregnant (she is too, about a week or two ahead of me) but I haven't told my parents yet.

I shared with her that I'm having a hard time with it, not enjoying being pregnant because I've been so sick, etc, typical pregnancy stuff.

She has been on my case saying "I really think you should tell mom and dad, mom could help you, it might make you feel better to talk to her since you aren't feeling well."

I have been adamant that um hello, it's my pregnancy my h and I will tell when we are ready, not a moment sooner. She will not let up!! Says I am selfish for not telling them yet, that I only care about myself () and not about my family. I have had enough!!

She is ruining this for me. It was going to be a joyous occasion when I told my parents now it's feeling like an obligation. I told her it isn't her business, that we are adults and will make the decision ourselves when the time is right.

She said - seriously - "you made it my business when you told me!" Ha!! I said we'll hey you know what why don't you tell them, maybe it will make you feel better about the whole thing.

Ugh! No point to this other than venting. These freaking hormones are making me lose my cool though I'm so pissed at her right now.

Oh man, I'm sorry your sister is so annoying. Just ignore her. It's your news to share and you will when you're ready.

So sorry! I have a similar issue, we had to tell H's sister since he has absolutely no knowledge of his family genetic history. She had a mosaic downs syndrome baby that did not make it, so we needed to inform the dr. She then "accidently" sent the email with the genetic information to my MIL instead of my H! We were wanting to get the NT scan done first, due to the history of his side, but now they all know

I just talked to her again and I think my message got through to her once and for all haha but ugh. Really annoying!

[joolz]

Yikes! It is SO not her business. I'm glad you got the message across but seriously, you shouldn't have to do that.

Doesn't she understand WHY people hold off on telling?! Seriously, it's amazing to me the number of people who apparently live under rocks and can't for the life of them understand why people aren't shouting it off the rooftops the moment that 2nd line appears!

[sleepyheads]

You have every right to be annoyed. It's your decision when to tell people, don't feel pressured! It seems like a good amount of people wait until they are closer to their 2nd trimester anyways.

Because those are the people who DO shout it off mountain tops. I've seen people post the freaking pregnancy test on Facebook. One girl I'm friends with basically got pregnant on her honeymoon and has been talking about it nonstop. She's almost to the 2nd tri, so she's probably in the clear, but geez.

True. I can't stand those people.

Well, to be fair to my sister she's not one of those people necessarily lol. I'm in another country and she worries about me which is sweet but annoying. I know her heart is in the right place she just wasn't listening to me!

She apologized though, we are good now. :Y:
