Today, my attention-seeking sister-in-law came to my 20 week ultrasound and afterward, without my knowledge, took it upon herself to announce the gender to Facebook and call the entire family, telling them "we're having a boy" nullifying any need for the announcement I had spent 4 weeks planning.

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my sister-in-law had the nerve to hijack my baby shower to announce her pregnancy. It's all the more infuriating because we later found out that she's NOT pregnant, just a fucking attention whore. FML
Today, my future sister-in-law cancelled my invitation to her and my brother's wedding. Her reason was that I was incredibly rude to announce my pregnancy to my family at a time like this, because it took all the attention away from her. FML
Today, my sister announced her pregnancy at my husband's funeral. FML
Today, I announced my first pregnancy to my family. Not to be outdone, my sister immediately announced that she "might" be getting pregnant soon. My family ended up congratulating her instead, and asked me if I would plan the baby shower. FML
Today, I found out via Facebook that my older sister just had another baby, a whole week ago, whose name is my middle name. No one told me. I didn't even know she was pregnant. FML
Today, my sister refused to come to the hospital with the rest of my family to visit my new baby. Apparently, I’m an "attention hogging slutbag" because I "chose to go into labor" on her birthday. FML
Today, my sister went into a blind rage at me for "upstaging" her by announcing that I'm pregnant, two months after she did the same. My husband and I have been trying for two years. She's in high school and doesn't even know who the father is. FML
Today, my sister announced that she just got engaged… right as I was in the midst of giving birth to my twin daughters. The thing is, she's not actually engaged. In fact, she's single. She just couldn't stand that I was "upstaging" her and "had to think of something fast." FML
Today, I was yelled at and humiliated by my otherwise awesome brother-in-law for my supposed lack of effort in the planning of a baby shower for my very pregnant sister. The kicker? Her huge, break-my-bank semi-surprise baby shower has been in the works for a month, and is happening this weekend. FML
Today, I found out that my husband proposed to his girlfriend, and that her mom had posted it on Facebook. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

<p>Make a post of your own announcing the baby's gender and saying that if they heard the baby's gender from anyone else, they violated your privacy and trust by going behind your back to do so.Also, cut her out of the loop as much as possible, and I'd keep an eye out for other actions like this or if she tries to guilt trip you about being mad. Based of just this information, she still sounds like a possible case of Narcissistic Personality Disorder. I suggest reading about it and making your o

<p>OWn call, because Narcissists aren't good for kids to grow up around and can even be actively dangerous. Most people that are "attention seeking" have the predisposition for behavior that is dangerous to themselves and everyone around them.</p>

I think this is a sign Op. First--Speak with your husband about not letting the Sil attend events you want to remain private. He should then speak with his sister about her behavior and let her know that she is no longer part of the inner circle of trust. Second??-- Don't take anything she does too seriously because she's a jerk.

Well you did allow her to go to the ultrasound, Should have told her before hand not to say any thing to be sure that she wouldn't. Not defending her, it was a dick thing to do but was she aware about your planned announcement? It sounds like your first child, Congrats. Lot's of fun to come.

Telling someone not to do something doesn't mean that they will listen.

Letting her go with was not giving her right to tell such personal information.

Regardless of your sister-in-laws intentions that's just disrespectful. If she would have stopped and spoken to you for even a moment, she would have known that's not what you wanted. The fact that she failed to communicate with you, but communicated with all of your family really gets me. I think you should still make your own announcement OP! Congrats & good luck with the rest of your pregnancy! (:

I'd be going off on someone if they did that to me. In fact that person most likely would not be apart of the childs life for awhile because of how selfish they are. I hope you and your husband spoke to her and ripped her a new ass hole.

Even if you did allow the sister in law to be there at the ultra sound that does not give her the right to go tell people yours and your husbands child's gender to who ever she wanted. She did it in my opinion to focus attention on herself since you, your husband, and the baby had more attention on you all. She knew what she was doing

I'd have a really hard time trying to forgive that one. Wow.

I would have been livid. i get she may have been excited, but it's up to the parents to announce the sex of the baby. No one else. Period.
