... and lets have high tea to celebrate Jackie !
your post hurts me Jackie. I cant believe that someone ( who is blood relation to you ) in your family could treat you like that.
Re: Nesties Unite
Yes, Jackie your posts bring me to tears! I cant believe that your family could treat you like that. After what you did for your sis, she could at least come up with something!! She shouldnt have to come to you and ask you what do you expect! That is just plain wrong! Ughhhh
Keep us posted on what the OB says tomorrow.
Jackie,
If I lived closer, I would throw you one hell of a shower, tea, spa day or whatever! I'm so sorry your family is being ridiculous about this whole thing! BIG HUG!

Oh, Jackie. I just read your posts and I feel so terrible for you. It sucks when people you love, family especially, decides to be selfish. I realize I always have a reciprocating story, and it's just to say 'I kind of sort know how you feel'...for both my wedding and baby shower, I felt like they were afterthoughts- my mom, aunt, and sister didn't plan them until the last minute to the point that I wasn't sure if I was going to have one for not, and when we did, they were get-togethers at my aunt's house. My sister, on the other hand, had her showers for her planned out months in advance and were both at nice restaurants.
It is frustrating, because you're also battling with how you are "supposed to feel"- gratitude that anyone would do anything for you at all, happy over everything- and it's really unfair that we're "supposed" to act that way at all! Big hugs and I hope things get better for you, sweetie!

I really think we should throw you a virtual baby shower. I'm another one that would throw you the shower of the century if we were all closer.
Hang in there girl! *hugs*
Jackie, i'm so sorry you're going through this. I'm just checking in now since I'm feeling like crud and home in bed. I wish I had seen this sooner.
Lack of reciprocity when it comes to something so loving and thoughtful, really sucks. It doesn't have to be an extremely expensive event, it's the love and thought that counts.
I'll be in Boston May 18-21 if you want to go out for lunch or anything. On the 21st I have a 4:45 flight home but I'm done work at 11:30am. We could do a spa massage.
ditto!

I'm so sorry you are feeling down and overlooked by your family. I wish we could all make it to Boston and have a fabulous girls day out! Sending you lots of hugs J!
