[quote=Anonymous]I am so fascinated by this thread. I am the kid who doesn’t cause trouble and has to always go along with everyone else. Sort of felt like the forgotten child sometimes, though probably my siblings remember things differently who knows.

But, totally unplanned, I had the first grandchild. And woohoo were my parents excited to become grandparents! They only got to do that for the first time once and it was with my oldest. They were camped out at the hospital and losing their minds with excitement. They truly love all their grandchildren and are wonderful grandparents but that level of specialness and excitement was pretty much a one time thing. My siblings were mostly reasonable about it aside from one SIL who was super bitter I “stole” her chance to have the first grandchild (her own parents already had other grandkids) but I strongly suspect they remember my parents being awake and with me for nearly a full day waiting for my oldest to arrive. If they had no problem waiting a couple days to go visit their other grandchildren I think that would have been noticed. I really do think a new baby is exciting and special and should be treated that way whether they are grandchild 1 or 35.

Anyway it’s just a tough situation and I really hope everyone who hasn’t pushed a bowling ball out of their private area within the last day can be flexible if the person who is probably still bleeding from her vagina is a little emotional. [/quote]
