Should i be hurt and angry???
This isnt pg related, but while my sister was pg i was always there for her, offering advice etc. The baby has arrived now and she is planning the christening. I just assumed that as her only sister she would ask me.
How wrong could i be! She is having freinds instead. I am devastated. Should i be?? Am I being unreasonable??? Would love to here other peoples opinions. Thankyou x

I am the same there's only me n my bro and my nephews christening on Sunday, his wife has a brother n sister, I stupidly assumed it would b me n her brother, how wrong was I. I felt really hurt and was determined not to go to christening but at end of day you like myself are an auntie and will always be there no matter what, friends come and go. Talk to your sister tell her your upset and find out her reasons, she could just be thinking you are the babies aunt and that means much more :) chin up x

Thanks Ladies, i have spoken to my sister and she didn't realise i would be upset. She thought that being her auntie tops godparent. I do agree, but it still hurt. Im super emotional at the moment, af due any day. This definetley hasn't helped!! Thanks again for you advice it really did help put things into prespective. x

I completely understand your feelings. With my sister's first child (now 5) I was Godmother, and rightly so - I looked after while her mother worked I was her favourite play thing. She has since had her second child (now 13 months) and when I ask if he is to be christened she says, 'yes, Emma is going to be his Godmother'. I was crushed. Emma is her friend from school that she sees maybe once or twice a year. Emma has no children and knows nothing of babies in general let alone my sister's babies who I am so close to.
Kudos to you for stepping up and saying something, I'm not so brave. Though I'd like to know the plan if something happened to my sister and her husband. Would I get the 1st born and Emma get the second? Am I being totally downgraded? I think it comes down to my sister not seeing me and a 'mother' which really hurts considering that I'm in my TWW and having fertility treatment.
Sorry about my rant, but I completey get how you feel. Well done for talking to her!
