4 weeks ago at 12 weeks pregnant I found out my baby had no heartbeat. I had had a scan at 8 weeks and all was fine. Sadly a couple of days before I reached 12 weeks I had some light spotting and a scan the following day revealed the baby had no heartbeat. To say I was devastated was an understatement. My family rallied around immediately and although I live over 125 miles away from them all their support has been fantastic. My in laws on the other hand have been terrible. We live in the same city as my husbands parents and one of his 4 sisters. The others live away. They have never been warm but their reaction to that miscarriage had completely thrown me. I have not had any contact from them since we find out about the baby dying. They have not called over, phoned me or even sent a text message since the miscarriage even to see how our two small children are (both under 2 1/2) let alone to see how I am. Before this i made sure to call into them every week or so with the kids so they can see them. They have never made any effort to see their grandchildren : niece and nephew. My husband didn't understand why I am so angry but he grew up with them and doesn't know any different.I am so angry about their indifference and coldness. I now feel like I can't call over to them as I am so hurt by their behaviour. AIBU to feel like this?
