Okay so I lost my son shortly after his birth in April this year on my daughters 1st birthday.
My brother never wished me condolences directly it was a few weeks later he commented on my F.B. picture just saying how strong I am etc.
My mum broke the news last month that the day my son died him and sil found out they was pregnant but was awkward for them to tell me? I didn't really mind and was happy for them.
Okay here's the back story. I never attended my niece christening 2 years ago, a few weeks beforehand he called me a fat tart because I asked him to be nicer to our mother and then I informed I wouldn't be able to make the christening because I had work and I live 400 miles away and can't get the time off. He never spoken to me again, only on the day my daughter was born, he wished me congratulations (I think my mum told him too)
I've been trying for over a year to make effort, when I visited my mum I even took my niece out, I send her Christmas birthday presents etc but he refused to see my daughter as he couldn't get over me not attending the christening a year earlier?
I'm always trying to make effort on Facebook etc, which he ignores and my sil has had me blocked on all social media ever since I didn't go the christening!
So he never makes effort to send me a message even these last 2 months he hasn't once asked how I was.
Now he was boxing last Friday and his gender reveal was the next day and I sent him a message saying "good luck and I hope you and your wife get blessed with what you both want" and he replied with "thanks love you"
Now the next day my mum told me they was having a boy and my brother didn't want to tell me himself because he feels awkward.,,
Next hour, I get a message on F.B. that said
" boy boy boy boy boy boy boy boy boy boy boy boy boy, ahahhaha ducking what!!!!"
I replied back with "aw glad you're happy but what's the last bit meant to mean?"
He hasn't replied since.
My mum seems to think that he may have meant to send it to someone else but it's so weird because he's never randomly sent me a message in 2 years lol
Am I being unreasonable to think he was being nasty?
