[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Declining the invitation is fine. Wheedling about the baby is not.

No rational mother would want to take a 3mo to a group event anyway, especially at the tail end of cold/flu/COVID season.

Decline, that is absolutely fine. But making this such a production and whining and wheedling and running to the Internet is beyond stupid.

And yes, I breastfed two babies, and had bottle refusal with the first. Even with bottle refusal, I would have stopped by my brother’s local wedding reception for an hour or two while DH tried a bottle at home. It would have been a worthwhile opportunity for bottle practice, and if it didn’t work, I’d just feed when I got home. [/quote]

I went back and read op's original post and I don't see "production and whining and wheedling and running to the Internet".

She asked if there was any flexibility-she didn't demand it or throw a fit.

She posted here for a sanity check like plenty of people do on things ranging from work disputes, college visits, clothes, and yes, family visits. [/quote]

The OP was paranoid and delusional. First she played the victim by an unsubstantiated comment about how the brother doesn’t like her very much, then she claims his no kid policy is a direct attack on her children.

I'm going to trust the op over a random Internet person when she says her brother doesn't like her.[/quote]

It’s because she’s taking all of this as a personal attack. Like her brother could have had a different type of wedding that would be more family friendly but didn’t just to stick it to her. [/quote]
