WR kinda...RANT

my fsil just announced she is pregnant, and guess when she is due!? TWO WEEKS after our wedding....seriously...if fhs brother can't make it to the wedding b/c of this (he's the best man) i am going to be SO ANGRY!!!

I would not put it past her for planning it this way....ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I can relate to your drama as I have a FSIl who is the same way only to get attention on her instead of anyone else.....kind of like annoucing their pregnancy at a celebration dinner for our engagement!

Anways, Im sure your FH brother will be there no matter what and that due date may be pushed futher along...they are never that accurate.

Good Luck!

If she is due two weeks after and she is fine where she is than let her stay home with someone and he can go to the wedding. If she is a high risk pregnancy by that time, then unfortunately, things will change and you will have to deal with it. We as brides cannot dictate to people when to reproduce. You never know what issues people may have in regard to conception and maintaining healthy pregnancies. Coming from a family that has had its share of problems with that, Id consider it a blessing to add to the family.

you have a point, and all babies are blessings. HOWEVER, there is so much more to why this pregnancy is upsetting b/c we really aren't sure if they will even last long as a married couple and we question her motives...so I am also scared for that baby...

Well in that case, perhaps you are justified in your feelings. A baby should never be used as a reason for a couple to stay together. Children are perceptive at a very young age. They feel and sense emotional pain and angst even if they do not understand it. I hope for this child's sake, that your FSIL and FBIL are able to make things work so this child can grow up in a loving home.

ahh welcome to my world-FSIL is due a few months before the wedding and fully expected to not only be part of the wedding ( FBIL and newphew also) but lost it whn we told her that we did not want the small baby at the wedding-now she is no longer in the BP-said she may not come and of course said that her son may not be in the BP either.

Ahh the joys of having in-laws. I can't wait...............................

Well said.

I'm sorry, Your wedding is YOUR wedding and no one else's; it may be the center of your life right now, but not others.

Making the assumption that they would get pregnant on purpose to cause problems to your wedding is a pretty far stretch. If it was a 'vacation' then it would seem intentional, but getting pregnant....that's a little ridiculous to do no?
