Can I get a post please
Am I being petty or have I a right to be annoyed?
My child was born quite premature and I finally got them home (still 4weeks off my due date) and none of my partners family have bothered coming to see her but expect me to drag her out the house so they can see her even tho they all drive and we only live 10mins away from them but another baby in the family was born yesterday and they have all rushed around there and loads of pictures on Facebook playing. Happy families. Yet I’m the bad one cause I’ve finally opened my mouth and said something about how my kids are treated by them. But yet they are still saying to me I have to take her to them😠

You’re not petty. You could always go overboard to teach them a lesson 😉 . When they say they’d like to see the baby you act all ecstatic and talk about how excited you are to have them over and how much you’ll prepare for their visit, basically putting them in the worst situation possible to ask for you to come to them.
If they ask, anyway, you act super disappointed and sad and start lamenting about how tired you are from always going places with the baby, how worried you are that they might get sick, but no, no, you understand, you can’t very well expect them to make sacrifices for the sake of your little one, it’s okay, you’ll figure something out, etc….
Okay, maybe that’s a little petty, just couldn’t help myself.
I get exactly what you mean. & I’m annoyed too.
Half my family have met my daughter she was high risk & early.
They were all over my son 8 years ago. But my daughter they don’t ask how she is never met her.
The way I see it she’s not missing out on anything they are. If they can’t be bothered to make the effort. They don’t deserve to be in your lives x
Not petty …. you have extended an invitation to come over and see the baby …whether they show up or not is on them not you
Although my kids weren’t prem I’ve had the same issue. I was taking my kids to see them, given up now x
Not petty at all,I’d be upset x (also a preemie mum – Experienced similar)
not petty at all. with my 3 if anyone wanted to come and see them when they were born they came to see me I didn’t go and see them x
