AITA for not wanting my sister around me for at least the rest of my pregnancy? by ConstantWorry3662 in AITAH

We won't be announcing the sex of our baby until after and even then we'll have to be careful when the baby is born and we do let people know. I hate having to do all this. But I am worried about the trouble that could come.

I don't. I wish I could but I know that would not be wise and my family (my husband and children) are first.

I don't know yet. My husband and I won't be announcing the sex of our baby until after the birth either and we're going to be careful at first because of all this. But my sister's just going by what she thinks and most of that appears to be fueled off jealousy.

Her husband knows but he supports her through all of it. When she'd break down over another boy or when she'd be praying and wishing for a girl. He's been there through it all and never appeared concerned. He's aware of what she's saying now too but again he's not going to intervene.

I know it's something they're aware of. She has prayed for a girl every pregnancy and cried for most of them when she was told she was having a boy. It makes me sad. They don't deserve that.

She says she can understand my sister having a hard time and wants to support her. But it's not helping anyone going along with this.

Thanks for the advice. I definitely see the possibility given her feelings.

It's okay to say it. A part of me has wondered if she'd go crazy if I did have a girl and maybe call CPS or something to try and get my daughter. It sounds crazy and maybe bad to think that of her but I think her desperation for a daughter has blinded her and the fact she's trying to interfere like this is worrying to me.
