I will NOT worship her!

Not had simular but ignore her!! Enjoy your pregnancy and don't let her get to you!! x x
 
Jeez makes me happy my family is small and dysfunctional and no one talks to anyone :rofl: All I can say is with these type of people you can never beat them or equal them. Far better to just ignore, tell the people who are interested about your pg and enjoy their interest and don't let her or the others get to you. This situation won't just be there for the pg but all of your children's lives, hers will always be a month older and you will always potentially have this rammed down your throat. Try to distance yourself from those that annoy you and surround yourself with those that care for you. I wouldn't even rant to your OH about it as 1) he is a man and simply won't get it and 2) it is his cousin so he will feel some sort of loyalty however misplaced.
This sort of stuff is not worth getting stressed over or rowing over. Deep breath, turn the other cheek and enjoy YOUR pregnancy which will be as fabulously unique as you.
Good luck x
 
i've had this a tad with my Sil ( i still talk to her)

In may we both got a BFP..worked out was due a week apart.
Both really excited.
then a week later i had an MC.

she said sorry but then went out of her way to publicaly tell everyone she was worried about her bump as no sickness had started so booked 2 early private scans.

then went on to post the pics to FB...and kept talking to me about how lovely it was etc etc (which although happy for her made me really upset. :( )

then on july 3rd i got this bfp....she was the last of people i know to say congrats which i felt was odd.

Also last time round with Leo..i had a fairly ok prenancy (apart from bleeding at 11 weeks) and All that part of the family laugh at me now as i'm suggesting i'd like a homebirth this time round....but they think its hillarious as i had an epidural with DS who was only 5lb 10oz..but back to back labour.

Just try to ignore her huni xxx
 
ignore her love i know what you mean!! but at the end of the day u will both think our pregnancys and babys are better than each other cuz thats what its like with children!
just ignore her an nod politely!let her get on with it!gud luk x
 
just concentrate on u honey, my sil is due 2 weeks before me and already talks down to me as if she knows whats best :-S i just focus on me and my baby now have learnt to blank her out and have found things much easier since, harsh but fair...
 
I would ignore her, let her be the childish one and keep her in the dark! ha she will soon realise if she gets no juicy gossip about your bay feeding through, that your not bothered by her , don't let your OH talk about favorite baby names for goodness sake, incase shes one of those.

My strange neighbour, is actually only 11 days before me , and much, much bigger, they havn't notticed my bunp at the school yet, and actually I kind of like the fact that she will be assuming I am sooo much less preg than her ! ha ha enjoy something like that

Have you announced your pregnancy to them yet? Just wondered if they were purposely stressing you out knowing you were pregnant? xxx
 
I wouldn't worry about it too much really hun. I have 5 people around me that are pregnant and 2 others who have not long had theirs. It does drive you a little nuts cause people tend to forget that everyones pregnancy is different but I think your other half will be doting on you before long :)
