This is my first pregnancy and I'm been feeling left out by family and friends who are not pregnant and I'm wondering if I'm just being emotional?

I've been off work for a month because of a work injury and have been going stir crazy, 10 weeks pregnant. My sister got a free getaway for the weekend to a local ski mountain and I asked her if I could go... could really use some time out.

She secretly invited my other sister and a friend and the day before she left told me "well, you cant snowboard or drink so I invited people who could enjoy the trip with me".

I'm so hurt, I feel like I could have at least been invited and would have been happy doing my own thing while they snowboarded. I feel stupid for thinking people would still want to hang out with me and I feel like doing things with them isn't fair to them cause they could be having much more fun without me.

Is this a normal thing to go through during pregnancy or do I have merit for being upset with my sisters?

I'm sure it's a combination of the two - my emotional state is so up and down, I feel like anything could set me off.

But you definitely have a right to feel sad, I'd be upset too. I'm sure she didn't mean it to hurt you and was just looking out for your health. But still, she could have offered for you to come along anyway, especially if you were feeling up to it!

I would have a talk with her and let her know how you feel, she may not have even realized that this hurt your feelings. Confronting the issue might make you feel better and at least you'll get to vent!

Let us know how it goes!

hi,
it is not wrong to want to have fun with other people because being pregnant doesnt mean you are dissabled or handicapped or something.and yours sister had absolutely no right to treat you that way bcoz one day she will be pregnant and she wouldnt want you to treat her the say way.i do go out and have fun without drinking alcohol.find yourself a hobby,love yourself and the bundle joy thats growing inside of you.and enjoy every day as it comes, you will be just fine.the few months remaining is not a death sentence my Dear.

Goodluck to you.

Read good magazines, watch good movies and take a proper diet. You and your baby are the priority. Your joy and happiness will multiply when you see your baby.

Well, it's really normal to feel left out, but I think your sister was being mean by saying what she said. She shouldn't have said that. Her not inviting you was understandable. But what she said, wasn't. it was an insensitive thing to say to a hormonal pregnant woman.
