Is it normal to feel alone after not receiving a baby shower?

  • This is sad...
    did you tell his side of the family that your side is not throwing you a shower and ask if any of them would like to? Or maybe a friend could?.

    I had a nice baby shower with a cake and everything ...my mom threw me one.

    • Thank you!!! I think this is sad too:( Now I am 26 weeks along and ITS A BOY!!!! Unfortunately, I am so disappointed in my siblings and their lack of enthusiasm that I don't expect anything from anyone at this point. I didn't say anything to my husbands side of the family, I know his sister mentioned throwing a baby shower, but that's still up in the air. I certainly didn't mention my family's pisspoor attitude, because it's not something I like to discuss face-to-face. Yesterday, I celebrated Christmas with my side of the family and boy was it a mistake for me to even go over to my parents house. My brother, along with his wife and my younger sister couldn't give two shits of a rats ass about their new nephew. I did NOT receive one congrats from my brothers wife. The whole thing upsets me.

      • Your family sounds awful.

        I suggest you start to connect more with your husbands family. Talk to his sister about it...if she offered go to her tell her how you are feeling and ask if she was seriouse about throwing you one because you would love it if she did.
