Can I vent...SIL related

DON'T QUOTE PLEASE

OK so...

I haven't been hardly a Bridezilla and I've been very lax about everything...

BUT

My SIL told me she was going to try for a third kid at the end of the summer. I was like, OK, fine, no biggie. Obviously, my MOH/sister is due like any day now and I have no problem w/being pregnant. My only issue is that my SIL is the type of person who likes to make EVERYTHING about herself. She always likes people to see what she has, what she's doing, etc. Loves the attention. I know that if she gets preggo before my wedding, she will use my wedding as a way to tell the people she doesn't get to see (extended family).

Last night they picked up a new minivan because their lease was up. We were at her parents house, my 2 nephews were there, etc, looking at the new car. My 5 year old nephew was so excited and was like, it's so big for the new baby!!! Then her mother and father both made comments about the 'new baby.' I pretended like I didn't hear, but I caught her looking at me and she was whispering to her parents. I also did the math and if she's newly preggo, she would be due around March, which is when both of my nephews were born (her plan is to always give birth around March, go on leave, then finish the school year with ehr students in June). So I am like 99.999999% positive she's preggo and didn't tell me. Why would my 5 year old nephew say that? Even if they were planning, thats not something you'd tell a 5 year old, right? Like, 'you might have a little bro/sis soon?' And her parents both made comments about the car being perfect for 3 kids.

FH didn't understand why I was upset, I wasn't fuming or anything, but I *know* how she is and I *know* she's an attention wh()re and I *know* she likes to make things all about her. Clearly, she could have said soemthing to me last night but she didn't. Just tell me!!!! Can't I just have 1 day to have attention?

And yes, I'd like some cheese to go with my wine

I am so sorry. Yes she should have told you!! And no matter what she does it will be your day and all the attention will be on you whether she likes it or not!

don't worry - even if she does tell people that she's preggo at your wedding, they'll still be focussed on you and your FH.

but yeah, that's annoying!
