Baby Shower Blues

Ash • Happily married and blessed to have welcomed our TWIN BOYS via IVF a year ago in March of 2017! 💛🔬🍍👶🏼👶🏼
I'm so excited for my baby shower in February! On our invitation is stated regrets only. So naturally, when I don't here from people, I assumed they were coming. Well, one of my oldest and dearest friends just texted me last night asking to get together this weekend because she and and friend of ours won't be able to make it because they're going out of town together. I was surprised and told her I wasn't sure of my plans this weekend. She offered to mail my gifts so I agreed that would be better. Deep down I was stewing. I mailed out the invitations right after Christmas and you're now just telling me this AND you didn't send in your regrets yet. I started crying because I felt like I got the brush off. I've gone to both of her weddings, bridal and baby shower, Christmas parties, girls night in get togethers and more! She knows how hard our infertility journey was and she didn't have the decency to let me know ahead of time? What makes it worse is she asked if the shower was co-ed and told me when my shower gifts came in. Why if you're not coming? Ugh I know I'm probably acting ridiculous but I can't help it. Being 7 months pregnant and hormonal doesn't help. Phew ok rant over. 😝
