[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not very close to my sibling at all. We smile at functions, but we don't really talk. We never text or call. There were a lot of hurt feelings growing up, on both sides, and I don't think we'll ever get over it.

I never told my sibling I was pregnant. The thought didn't cross my mind. I told parents and close friends and then I posted about it on facebook. DH really likes his sibling, but I think his parents told his sibling. His sibling congratulated us quickly.  [/quote]

Taking OP at their word, their situation sounds more like your DH and his sibling in this case rather than you and your estranged sibling.  I'm curious if OP's sibling told anyone at all, because otherwise why wouldn't they have heard about it from their parents at least.  And surely if they are emplyed they had to plan for parental leave, so some people must have known.  Anyway, one of my siblings can be a bit cagey with sharing information, but this would be extreme even for them.[/quote]
