annoying sister in law!!

Omg! My sister in law is making me go crazy. She was ptegnant recently, and had a miscarriage, and when I knew what had happened, I sat there and cried with her and hugged her BC I felt so bad.
Now, she is pregnant again, and Im thrilled for her! But, when she was almost 3 months pregnant with this child, I found out that I was pregnant as well.
When we told her, instead of being happy for us, she was rude. She was asking if we were playing a joke on her BC she didnt want to be pregnant with me. She said that she didnt want people comparing our babies or she didnt want people worrying about me. She was mad, and mad it obvious. We asked her not to tell anyone, BC I wanted to wait until our 3 months, which is considered the ”safe time”.
Instead, she calls her mom and friends to tell them we are pregnant. So again, I asked her not to tell anyone else. But still, she went and told even more people! Then, BC this is my third ptegnancy, and both of my other children were considered high risk and they were both premiees, she told me that if I had this baby early, she would be seriously pissed at me??!! I cant help if I have my child early! On top of that, shes telling everyone that her child is high risk, like ours, BC she had a miscatriage at 6 Weeks pregnant before??!!
Now, she is telling me what to eat and what to do while Im ptegnant. I mean, really? I have had two children already. I think I know what.to do.
She even, at one point, told me, when I was  feeling.sick, that.

Wow i would be really mad, she is clearly thinking only for herself as  i think its awesome that your kids will be growing up together... i cant believe she would be so weird about it, or that blunt anyway! its not a competition and i agree, avoid her at any cost, she is not worth your time! if she continues to come to you ask her not to, unless she wants to talk about how she feels in a nice way then theres nothing to talk about...

She finally made me so upset that I started crying one day. I screamed at her and told her to chill and leave me alone and that shes being horrible, and quite stupid with sone of.the.things she.had done...and what did she say? Dont scream at her BC shes pregnant. Finally, at that point, her brother (my hubby) told her to chill out BC Im pregnant.too. But sadly, nothing has changed.... ***SIGH***

Wow how utterly selfish!!  I really hope this women gives her head a shake & realizes how rude & uncaring she is being!  

Have you tried talking to her about her actions & how she is coming across??  Maybe she needs to be told!  

Some people feel the world revolves around them or at the very least that it should & they need to absorb all the energy around them, if she does not stop being so unkind, try your best to keep your distance.

You sound like a very sweet person who deserves supportive people in your life, and especially with your prenatal history, you really don't need her & her drama stressing you out! '

I feel terrible that she had a miscarriage, no one deserves that, but her behaviour is inexcusable!

I wish you a very happy & healthy pregnancy!

I'm expecting my third baby and every time I've been pregnant one of my SIL's has been pregnant with me and we enjoy it having someone who totally understands what is going on and you can compare symptoms with can be fun. It sound like she's jealous that hers isn't going to be "the baby" of the family, try talking to her about it and if that doesn't work just tell her to leave you alone you want to enjoy your pregnancy. I really hope things work out for you.

I would keep that lady at a distance and completely stop talking to her about pregnancy at all not even a word if she asks just tell her to worry about her own baby... I wish I could say people like this grow up... but sadly they don't and I wouldn't even try anymore
