My sisters that is...... New to MN so might have posted this elsewhere already.

Anyway, I have 2 sisters who I get on with ok most of the times. All married with children. I have 2 Children and they have 2 each as well. They are bit older than me ( 10 and 8 years gap). I have always been there for them. But when I had my first child, pregnancy was very emotional as was in and out of hospital throughout the pregnancy. I expected them to be there for me but NO! One came to visit 3 months after I had the baby and the other well- about 9 months later. Was told that I was very emotional and said things that hurt them. no elaboration on what they were! OK, We made up and resumed our relationship..... 4 years down the line and...............

Had my second 6 months ago and the history repeats itself...no one phoned or came to visit. Phoned one of them and invited her to our house, when asked why they are behaving like this, was told it was due to something I said at a family gathering.

I am very low, emotional and don't think I want to bother any more? What would you do?

Honestly? They sound like hard work and I wouldn't be bothering with them - you can't discuss them with your husband? Are they having a laugh? That is a normal thing to do.

Really OP I wouldn't bother keep it civil but I'd be distancing myself from them.

Thank you guys. I have discussed with my husband but they don't want him to get involved. Our parents are old and they have medical issues and I don't think it is fair to involve them. when I had my first child, my parents got involved and they told them what they did was wrong. They got accused to favouring me................................ It is ALL childish really.

I am just really surprised how my body is reacting to this. It scares me.

They sound awful. They don't want you to tell your husband as they are bullying you and don't want anyone to know. What a couple of witches.
