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.

<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

My mother-in-law and sister-in-law did a similar thing to me. My husband privately told them we were having a boy and what his name would be, and they both plastered it all over facebook.

well it sucks but at least now you know not to trust her with information ever again.

Oooooh I would be soooo mad at her! That's just not ok. I hope you're not planning to let her be there for the delivery...

why didn't you kick her out of the room? that's a little harsh, but she violated your privacy and i think that's a valid reason

She probably invited the sister in law for support. She just didn't want the info to go out

I don't know your sister in law. I don't have children. I don't want children. I don't even like children. But, I HATE your sister in law for what she did. People like that are cesspits and the less contact with them the better. If I were you, I'd cut that bitch out of your life. To make something that is so intimate and personal to a couple like baby stuff and to to not be a part of that couple and release super private details is beyond a shitty thing to do. Ugh. I'm totally fuming in your honor. Try not to kill her though, if only for your baby's sake. I'd totally out your sister for being a tell all bitch (but in a non "clean" way for all ages to hear) on social media. Don't think of that as being petty as much as people deserve to know NOT to trust her with secrets. at all. ever. the nerve of some people, I swear. it's insane. what kind of small dry roasted nut would think this is even remotely okay.

And this is why we don't tell our siblings where we are.
