To expect my sister to not act like she's the first and last pregnant woman on earth

Just got back from family 'do' with sister who is 23 weeks pg. What a bloody fuss she was sat surrounded by cushions while her DP fetched like a dog. The minute the convo turned off her she would wince- why who knows.
To make matters worse her in-laws were there and she was being pathetic saying how she thought birth repulsive and how he would have to take the baby for 9 months after.
Her DP is on a v.good wage and has said she can give up work but she has made a huge fuss about how she has to work and how anything less than 30 hours is part-time. This is just how many hours y new job is and I have the DC's when I get home.

OK, I misunderstood. Wonder if she might be slightly depressed. Actually though I can sympathise a bit with her thinking the birth will be gross!

Do you think so? Hadn't thought of that in my bacardi fuelled rant. I've not seen her for a long time she had a 3 week holiday then I was away for a while and was looking forward to seeing her and she's just morphed into this negative bossy character.

She is pregnant and hormonal.

I was the bitch from hell when I was pregnant. I cringe when I look back at the things I said.

Lol at the negative bossy character. That was me!

if she's normally fine then i think it does make it more likely she's a bit depressed if she's suddenly gone all negative.

I love the dp fetching like a dog!!!!!

Wish my dh would do that and I'm 39 weeks!!!!
