[quote=Anonymous]OP - do you notice the trend in all of these responses? Your SIL is not the problem here. You are. You need to learn to be more empathetic and compassionate. The joy your felt when you saw the positive pregnancy test? Imagine the crushing pain she feels each and every month when that doesn't happen for her. This isn't about her slighting you; It's about her own sadness and grief. Some people going through infertility can put on a happy face, at least for a while and "pretend." But they also sob into their pillow each night with each pregnancy announcement by a friend, family member or coworker. Your brother is experiencing the same thing. You cannot imagine the heartbreak they are feeling. This is your chance to grow up and be kind. Take it. [/quote]
