Really, I am just venting.

😤

Okay, so a little back story: About a week ago my older brother's gf texted me around 2am asking me not to be mad at her.

Weird, right?

Well, knowing she and my brother frequently get into it and post nasty stuff about eachother online, I assumed maybe she has taken things too far or something- So I call her.

She picks up and immediately begins saying I will be mad and how when her friend did ot to her she was devastated.

Confused? Yeah, so was I. Finally I had to shout at her to stop and just tell me what happened...

She then told me she "thought" she was pregnant.

She and my brother have a six year old together already, and he is my mother's world (first grandchild and all that), but my mom has been over the moon I'm pregnant and talks about it constantly to anyone who will listen, and you can tell it annoys the gf a bit.

Throughout my entire pregnancy all she has done is talk about when SHE was pregnant and say how she wants a baby again (a girl so it'llbe the first granddaughte)-

So, I was HAPPY for her. I immediately assured her a baby is never something to be mad over, and it will be sweet having our babies so close in age.

Still, she seemed concerned she would "steal my time" and even brought up my baby shower in February and how she was afraid everyone would be focused on her pregnancy....

Well, considering my baby shower is again, IN FEBRUARY, and a celebration of OUR child, I failed to see how she would take "attention" away from us. No one really knew, and from what she was saying her pregnancy would barely be at 15 weeks for the shower.

Well, today our invitations officially went out...and her pregnancy announcement went up on Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat.

With her eight week ultrasound.

My husband and I were supposed to post our pregnancy announcement this Monday along with our due date because it would be a year exactly we lost our first pregnancy and we wanted to bring on the new year with good news.

The whole family knew this...including her.

NOW I feel cheated/like she stole the show.

I know it's probably pregnant hormones, but seriously I am so mad I am almost in tears.

I now feel like if I post our announcement it will be like I am in competition with her because we waited so long.

Okay, rant over.
