Oops, I meant three weeks after my due date.

My sister planned her wedding 3 weeks before my due date. Have you ever been measured for a matron of Honor gown while 7 months pregnant?

It's hard to believe that any of these events would be a downer for your family, OP.

The only thing a little odd is having weddings within weeks of each other. But mostly because it's a cost burden on the parents if they're helping, and because you're likely to have a lot of shared (family) guests so that's a lot for them.

Most people figure out that they're really not that "special," by around 18, or when they go to college.

Weird that it's taken you this long to realize it OP, but welcome to being a grownup - you and your life circumstances are not special snowflakes.

Fast forward to the actual wedding planning and her wedding was just a few weeks after mine was. There was a slew of drama that came up because I wanted similar colors as she did(really stupid), and I was trying to "get my wedding done quicker to out shadow hers". Got past that, and shortly after I found out I was pregnant. Just had our kid 10 days ago, and now sister announced she's pregnant.
Is it normal for it to just happen this way? It feels like she's following in my footsteps as quickly as she can. She's older than me, and said she still didn't plan on getting pregnant for a few years as to finish school. But BIL said they started trying about two weeks ago. I just don't understand it, it has been making it feel less special to not only me, but our family to be going through so many congratulations so quickly.


Wow, you're petty. Chances are, gasp, she just happened to get pregnant after the birth of your child. It happens, you know? Should she time her sex with her husband around not being close to any time when you are pregnant, giving birth, or anything else?

My sister in law had a baby two months before her sister. They're thrilled. You're weird, op.

OP, you need help.

OP, if you would just slow down and let her get in front of you, she'd pass you off and his wouldn't bother you anymore.

Were you born right after her? Payback's a bitch.

I think OP started it by being born.

OP has she tried to compete while growing up? If yes, then you are likely right.

He wasn't close to either of them, lol. They used this event to try and upstage his own kids, it was something. Years ago I went to the younger nieces wedding paid for by a parent who couldn't afford it. She had like 9 brides maids.

OP I know exactly what you're talking about, your sister has a problem. All you can do is ignore it.


Wow. Pot meet kettle.



When there's a pattern in all kinds of areas, it's not coincidental.
