[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It looks like your wife doesn't like your brother or even your parents.

I get that she's already tired and will be even more tired when the baby's here but I think she's being unreasonable.

Can't you get help there? Like a sitter ? Or someone that would accompany you to the wedding, a sitter or friend, that can help out and stay at the hotel or family home while you enjoy the wedding ?[/quote]

This.  If she would do it for her side of the family then she needs to do it for your side of the family.  It is part of being a family.[/quote]

You're taking his assumption that she would "do it" for her family.  But unless she traveled 6 weeks after having her first kid to spend the entire holidays at an event she wasn't interested in while wrangling a toddler for her family, you have no way of knowing it's true.  Certainly just sounds like whining on OP's part.[/quote]

But OP says she would go if it were her sibling.  It is the last line of the first paragraph.  And it is what you do for family.  Sometimes you have to make an effort and it sounds like that is what OP is hoping his wife will do - make an effort.  At 6 weeks post-birth there is no reason for her to not go. [/quote]
