[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would assume it's been either a bumpy ride to conception or a tough pregnancy. Fertility battles can be tough and most people prefer them private. I would have empathy and relay my excitement and joy for them and not worry about when I was told this awesome news.[/quote] +1 It may also be that they feel your family is overwhelming. Some MILs will throw a huge surprise baby shower regardless of the feelings of the expectant mother, or the parents unexpectedly show up at the hospital room while she's in labor (my own experience). I can't say if your parents are overbearing or not, but your brother and his wife want their own intimate experience and do not want to entertain everyone else's needs and desires at this time.[/quote]
