Am I wrong?

Here's the story: some of you know I'm currently living in Italy & will be flying home next week for a baby shower. Well my husband and I planned on getting a 3D ultrasound the day before the shower because it's A LOT cheaper in the states then over here. I invited some family and his because I thought it'd be a nice thing for them to be involved considering we aren't flying home after the baby is born. We will be back in the states in 2017. Well my grandma decided she didn't want to go and blamed it on my grandpa saying he doesn't want to.. Now this morning I wake up to my mom saying she isn't going because she has to have test done twice a week since she's also pregnant. She stated how it's just an ultrasound and she will see my baby when she's born.. Well it kind of made me mad because she's known about this for how long & gets mad when I don't include her in things. Am I wrong to be mad? It's not like I don't want her to get her checkups but seriously since it's not her baby it doesn't matter now? I think I'm just fed up with my family drama and trying to include them in things since I'm so far away and them bailing. 😑

@momofroyalty thank you. I responded to her message and I wasn't sure if I was wrong to even be mad but I can't help to feel like I am. My mom says how I favor my dad but how can I not now when he never lets me down ya know?

no , I think you have that right. because you wanted you wanted your family to be there and share the special news with them especially since you won't be seeing them for like another year in the half so you wanted to make this a special family event. and , by it being your mother you took it offensive because it's your mother. I would feel the same way if I invited my dad and he shot me down especially when he knew before.

@gabby0317, yes I understand and totally agree! Ever since I got pregnant then she found out she was it's been back n forth with her and drama.

@monilovesautumn, thank you. My mom is the person to always blame me for not talking to her or letting her know what's going on with me or the baby yet she never talks to me either unless it's in our group fb message about the baby shower. My dad and other family is going which I'm thankful for but I hate how she knew about this and made her appointment the same day. It just feels like she didn't even care about it.

@monilovesautumn, honestly it feels like she wants to compete. Everything I've said I wanted for the baby she makes comments like "oh I need that too" or there was an outfit I wanted my gma to knit for me that I posted on fb and then my mom shared the same picture to her saying she wants one for her baby. She's mad because I'm not thrilled about her being pregnant. Well how can I be when now I feel like everything is about her and my daughter is kind of gonna get the short end of the stick with my mom since she's having her own baby

@gabrielle_d, That's disheartening to gear. My second daughter and I are both pregnant....she's due any day now. She resides in NC because she got married to a marine. From a mommy's perspective, I would give anything to be with her to share those moments. Especially with her living so far away. Despite ME being pregnant as well, I wanted to have a HUGE part in her pregnancy, sadly distance didn't allow that. A mommy's love is supposed to be unconditional and if she would ask me to be involved in any if it (assuming distance would allow), it doesn't matter that I am having another baby, what matters is her! She is my "baby" as well! That's just so sad that a mom and other family members wouldn't want to partake in such a blessed event after you asked them to be there! What I wouldn't give to have been closer to my daughter and the pre-birth events of my grandson. SMH.

@babyhawkins2015, I'm glad you understand and I am sorry you couldn't be there more 😕 the distance is horrible and that's why I'm so frustrated because we've had this planned for awhile now but all the sudden people can't go. I mean I understand my mom is excited about her baby but what about mine also? My dad and aunt have been a huge help with all this going on because even planning my baby shower was drama. My mom told my aunt to get the stuff and she would pay her then throws in my face I didn't let her plan it. I'm hope the baby shower goes good lol

@gabrielle_d, - WOW!!! That made me teary eyed because I wished to God I could have been there for my daughter and grandson. Sure I am excited about having her little sister but EQUALLY excited about having my grandson! And you are coming all the way from ITALY!!!! That in itself, is a huge event! I just don't get moms could be that way. Just because I am pregnant doesn't discount my child having her own baby. That's pretty selfish! Personally, I would regret not partaking in any of my daughter's events if she were even remotely close to me. I pray your shower is a hit and she doesn't try to take credit for it or even make it about her being pregnant (just saying I know people that are like that... can't stand to see others in the spotlight). Either way, you have yourself a ball and ignore any potential drama, it's your and your baby's day!!!

@babyhawkins2015, thank you! I am definitely excited to see our other family and friends. Some of us are worried she will try to make the baby shower about her because that's how my mom is. She loves attention. I wasn't even going to come home for a baby shower but luckily my husband was able to take leave from the military. I didn't want to fly alone that far along just in case anything were to happen. I feel that my family will regret not being involved once my daughter is born and they can't really be apart of her life... I must say on a different note, I read your bio and you are an amazing mom! You don't even look 39 either!!
