AIBU? Issues with my elder brothers bragging

[CaffeineChaosandCuddles]

I am a mum of 2, 5 year old girl and 18 month old boy.

my elder brother has 1 child, a boy, 9 months old.

AIBU to be miffed at the fact him and his girlfriend brag a LOT about what their son can do that mine can’t? I’ve never said anything, but it WINDS ME UP.

my son isn’t pointing or waving yet and has limited words, he was born extremely premature and has a hearing loss. I have concerns for my little boy I just want the best for him- but then I get the pair of them coming round and posting in the family group like…

’Jude has waved today, look wave at him, he’ll wave… is Arthur still not waving? Aw. I’m sure he will get there’

I want to scream. I hate braggy parents and it puts me off seeing my brother and my nephew AIBU?

( side note: they know about my sons delays and how they make me concerned )

Urgh what cringe behaviour! 😖I'm sorry you're having to suffer this shite Reminds me of when my older DC was 13 months and 'still not walking' 🙄 The mother of a mum friend of mine at the time who had a baby 3 days younger than mine, (who I met in the hospital when we were in together,) kept saying 'it's so odd that she's not walking yet.' (This friend's mother always seemed to turn up when I visited her with my DC.) I said 'she's fine, she'll walk when she's ready.'

One day my friend's mother picked my DD off the carpet where she was playing with my friend's DD, and started 'walking' her across the carpet, like she was a fucking doll. Then she let her go, as she was convinced she would carry on walking..

After 'walking DD' for 5 or 6 steps she let her go, and DD fell flat on her face and burst out crying. I yelled at the woman and said 'what the bloody hell are you doing?! You could have hurt her!' 😠 I was fuming! It happened so quick that I couldn't intervene. I grabbed my DD and said to my friend 'I'm going! Your bloody mother is a pain in the arse!' Then I left. (She saw what her mum did but said nothing.) Suffice to say I never contacted that friend again (and she didn't contact me, probably too embarrassed!)

By the age of 3, this (ex) friend's daughter had slightly bandy legs, and poor posture. (I saw her out and about in town with her mum and nan.) She left the area when our DD's were 5, so I never knew if her legs/posture improved.. My DD started walking - on her own - at 17 months of age.
