[quote=Anonymous]I agree, let it happen organically. I wouldn't expect anyone to be excited or want to share in your pregnancy. For many people, it's not real until the baby is out. It's almost like the bride who expects everyone to be excited about her wedding. I would make a reasonable effort to include DH's family on e baby is here. You could send out baby announcements to everyone with a little note in each saying something like you'd love to get together and mend any bridges, etc. Another idea is to have a meet the baby party afterwards (I think people call them "sip and sees", you sip drinks and see the baby). You could invite DH's family to that a few months after the birth. Also, maybe a 1st birthday family party just with DH's family. I'd do those three things, and follow their lead. [/quote]
