First time writing. Basically I’m looking for people who understand my situation or if this happened to you what did you do?

Ok, so, I lost our baby with an ectopic pregnancy back in July. Well, this next week is when I would have given birth and I’m extra sensitive this week. My husbands brothers birthday is coming up and his family wants to do a dinner to celebrate.

Well, brothers wife has chosen that day to announce she is pregnant (she’s kept me in the loop so I don’t feel surprised or anything. No one is upset, just sensitive). So I don’t want to go to his brothers birthday party and hear them announce they are having a healthy, happy baby.

Well, husband is hurt that I’m making him skip his brothers birthday so I told him he could go without me. He’s worried that it looks bad that I won’t be there without him. I told him that I think he should support me instead of his brother in all of this and at this time. He said he’ll think about it.

P.S. we live in said brothers basement so I suggested we just give him his present and spend some time with him just not at the family dinner when they announce.
