OP again! I had no intention of attending their wedding due to advice of my doctor. I did give a lovely gift and attend the shower. My husband did plan on attending. He was a groomsman. SIL said the day would be ruined since the number of attendants was off.

When she attended my son's birthday party, she hung around my MIL and didn't say anything to me.

Presumably they had about 8 months to change things around. BIL should have asked someone else, and your husband presumably would have understood.

Delaying pregnancy by a couple of months wouldn't have done anything, Lucy would probably have been pissed there was a pregnant woman at her wedding stealing attention. And what if the baby had been born three months early and spent weeks in the hospital? What if it was early in the pregnancy, she had a miscarriage, and her husband needed to stay home with her? What is early on she was put on bed rest? So many things can go wrong and delaying isn't a guarantee they'd be able to make it to the wedding.

OP, take care of your hubby and beautiful baby and forget about your loser in laws. If they are that histrionic they will end up divorced, then it won't even matter that you missed their wedding.

Your scenarios are unlikely. Much likelier that she could have attended the wedding if she delayed the pregnancy by a few months.

Also, it doesn't seem the SIL was upset they had a baby, only upset they didn't attend the wedding.

Unlikely? 20% of pregnancies end in miscarriage. I cancelled trips to see family after a miscarriage because it was so devastating. The likelihood of all of the above go up with age. And again, it's completely outrageous to expect someone to delay having a baby because of a wedding. It's her body and her right to decide what is best for her family- the nuclear family of her and her husband.

I really can't believe some of the responses here. If Lucy had come on here and posted "my BIL and SIL had the audacity to go into labor a month early on my wedding day. I am still pissed a year later and they should have delayed getting pregnant" people would rip her apart for being a selfish bridezilla.

A couple things, dear. First, you're off your rocker. SIL clearly knew OP wasn't attending either way and was only expecting the husband. Second, there's only like one person on this thread (you) who agrees with the crazy SIL, so posting over and over a minute apart pretending to be different people is just stupid.

Pretty sure it's just one, or at most two, nuts.
