I honestly don’t know if I’m being too sensitive or if this would hurt other people too.

When I had my baby shower a lot of my family didn’t show up and barely cared. It was honestly really painful and embarrassing at the time.

Now my brother is having a baby and my mom is spending a lot on his shower, his wife’s sisters and mom is helping, and everyone is excited and involved. Meanwhile some of the same family members who never even came to mine are showing up for theirs.

I am happy for them and love them so much. I think the hardest part is feeling like people celebrate everyone else but when it comes to me, I’m just forgotten.

Has anyone else dealt with this feeling?
