Have NC and am being deliberately vague about a few details.
Last week it was DC's 1st Birthday. We had a family party (aprox 20 people invited) and whilst it was low key it was a big deal to me PFB
A few hours before the party a close relative and someone I get along with fantastically sent a WhatsApp message to several family members... Scan picture and due date. Amazing, wonderful news and I immediately sent a message back offering my congratulations and saying I couldn't wait to give them a hug at the party.
I received a reply along the lines of "Sorry we wont be able to make the party as we had to travel to X city so we could have the scan today"
There was no mention of Happy Birthday to my DC. No acknowledgement at all.... I know it's petty but I am really upset.
I am thrilled about the pregnancy and have no issue with it being announced on DC's birthday, but it's the complete non acknowledgement of something important to me that hurts.
DH doesn't get why I was / am bothered so I am wondering if IABU?
