To be hurt and just want to scream

A bit of background. We've been trying for DC2 for a while now and when I got my first positive pregnancy test, I told my mom, auntie and Nan straight away. My auntie and my nan are both very toxic people but I felt as though telling them from the start was the right thing to do. My auntie was surprisingly very happy as was my mom but my Nan just replied with 'again?' She then said 'you won't be able to cope'. I lost the baby, and then I lost another one after that. I'm now 13 weeks pregnant with my second and we're over the moon. This time, I've decided to only tell my mom in case something goes wrong again. I had my scan and all looks well so it was time to announce to the others. Everyone in DH's family was really pleased and happy for us...but my auntie and Nan were being difficult...again. My auntie replied after 3 hours and said 'Great, congrats. Good luck ;)'....and my Nan's response was 'Oh god. When?' I'm so upset. Why can't they just shut their mouths and say congratulations for the sake of not being a bitch?? I feel like we've made a mistake now and no one is actually happy that we're having another one.

Ignore them. It’s not going to change. And stay home for Xmas, fuck the aunt. She’s a self centred hag.
