[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do people feel the need to announce they are in labor and gather an audience? Just let your friends and family know the baby had arrived at some point within a day of its birth. Sheesh.[/quote]

Because some women enjoy making a spectacle of their pregnancy. The detailed week-by-week posts on social media, elaborate pregnancy and gender reveals, and then once they actually go into labor they want an audience and everyone to know how much they’re dilated. [/quote]

Totally both of these.  After reading through these posts I think the biggest thing that is coming through to me is that OP feels she missed out on being the center of attention so she is creating drama now.  OP has been carrying this grudge now for 2 weeks and instead of letting it die she's amping it up.  That's just sad.

FWIW I think that the MIL did overstep and that's unfortunate but that's the way it goes.  The friend could have texted or called OP or OP's husband but clearly chose not to.  Wonder why OP is pinging on the MIL and not going on and on about being "abandoned" by the friend?[/quote]
