TTC After a Loss

Kind of pissed (long)

So my sister's EDD is April 3. So she wants me and her friend in the delivery room, if I can make it. She lives a few hrs away. Well, I scheduled my wisdom teeth to be taken out the 6th, figuring she would have him before or after then. Well, low and behold, if he isn't here by her due date her dr wants her to go in on the 5th to be induced and she would most likely have him sometime on the 6th! If she has him Fri-Sun I won't be able to be there because of work. Well, we were hoping he would come this week but things don't work that way. Well, my Dad got me tickets to see Alicia Keys on Fri. They were a surprise about a month ago. I actually think he kind of did it on purpose. So I posted on FB that I was excited about the concert, etc. Well, my sister commented "you are setting some strict limits aren't you?" WTF? Yes because my entire life revolves around the workings of your uterus! I'm really annoyed with that. I'm excited about the baby and happy and would love to be there but I can't just put my life on hold, ya know. So I said "actually Dad did, he is the one who got the tickets." Would that annoy you?

 

ETA: Crap, she posted back. I guess she was being funny because she did a smiley and said dad told her she couldn't go into labor that day before I knew about it. Now I feel bad Embarrassed

  • Don't feel too bad, hun. You didn't know, and if I had just the info your originally did, I would have been irked too.

  • Don't feel bad.  You don't have to put your life on hold for this - and obviously your dad agrees since he's the one that bought you the tickets. You are allowed to have something exciting to look forward to. 

  • Don't feel bad. It's HER baby. As much as your sister wants you to be there, you should live your life. You have a great future with your neice/nephew and he/she will not remember the delivery room. Do what makes you happy!

  • She might have been "joking," but I think it was done in a very passive-aggressive way.
