My husband has 3 older sisters - none have had any part in my pregnancy, or really checked up in any way and it bothers my husband.

Honestly, I don’t really care. I’m a happy loner - but it does bother my husband.

My one sister lives far away and she calls me quite often and asks for updates, sent us lovely gifts - including a car seat.

To be fair, none of his sisters have kids/haven’t experienced pregnancy (so therefore maybe don’t think about support).

They’re all quite proud/headstrong, and he’s certain they’re waiting for some kind of invite… to? Idk? Hang out? Like we have to make the first move in them caring/supporting.

One of them said we should cook together one day, but with the end goal of us making a bunch of food and she keeps half. I told her that I have just about enough energy to cook one meal a day and that’s it.

She adjusted her offer to be well maybe she just cooks for me then.. but was like waiting for me to give her the go ahead, or tell her what I want?

At that point it was just kind of awkward - my husband says if she wanted to make me food she would have just made the food.

This is their first nephew/niece, so we both just find it weird that don’t seem to give a crap. When we told them we were pregnant they were all excited, but crickets since then.

It kind of bothers me that as soon as he’s born that they’ll care and be involved.. and makes me feel bad for pregnant women everywhere like we’re just the vessel that doesn’t need to be cared for.

Anyway - hope you all are getting some kind of support from someone that loves you ❤️
