Sister being Negative all the way

Hi,

I'm a FTM and this pregnancy was unexpected in all ways. I split with my the bd early. I still live at home with my parents I'm in my late twenties.

My issue is my younger sister is completely put out by all the attention on the new baby coming. She is is 26 years and lives at home also.

Complains about me to her work colleagues and friends, that I'm being treated like a princess. My whole pregnancy issues and relationship was told to them.

Okay I get I'm a snappy hormonal and my parents are doing a lot for me. But my sister is so resentful of the baby and all the help I'm getting.

She is constantly giving out and we are fighting all the time. I feel bad for our parents as they are trying to balance their feelings. I get insults thrown at regarding the situation. She says her life is going to be impacted by it.

I would have thought she would have been more helpful to me, but as she said people have babies every day I'm not special so just get on with it.

Any advice?
xx

Honestly, it sounds like you both need to grow up a bit. Pregnancy doesn’t give anyone a green card to be snappy at anyone else. Obviously we don’t know why your parents are doing so much for you, if it’s because of medical reasons then fair enough but if they’re doing a lot just because you are pregnant I don’t think that’s fair on them.

her life will 100% be impacted by your baby. They make a lot of noise throughout the day and night and do cause quite a bit of disruption to everyone’s lives for a while. It doesn’t mean she won’t love her niece or nephew though.

I think you both need to be thinking more about your parents. You are both living there, you should both be helping them out. This is going to impact their lives massively too.
