Recently, this 29-year-old woman married her incredible 31-year-old husband. Instead of her wedding day being one of the best moments of her life, her 32-year-old sister managed to ruin it by stealing the spotlight.

Now, she and her husband have been hoping to have a baby for quite some time. They finally got pregnant, and they thought it would be special to make an announcement at their wedding reception.

Her Maid of Honor and her parents were the only people who were aware of this. In the weeks leading up to her wedding, her sister mentioned that she’s also pregnant.

She was thrilled for her sister, but then her sister stated that she’s choosing to announce her pregnancy at her wedding!

“I was shocked and told her, as kindly as I could, that I would prefer she didn’t. I even explained why because I was also pregnant and planning to share the news that day,” she explained.

“I asked if she could wait just a little longer so the day could stay focused on the wedding. She seemed a bit annoyed but didn’t argue much, so I thought that was the end of it.”

“Well, fast forward to the reception, and guess what? Right after the speeches, she stands up, clinks her glass, and announces her pregnancy. The whole room erupts in cheers, and suddenly, my wedding turns into her pregnancy celebration. I was stunned. I didn’t even get the chance to share my own news because it felt like I’d just be trying to “one-up” her.”

She did confront her sister later on, who acted like she was being dramatic. Her sister said she just had a hard time keeping the news to herself.

She responded by letting her sister know how hurtful her behavior was, and her sister called her selfish for trying to control her.

Her mom and dad feel that her sister was wrong, but they want her to drop the issue to prevent more drama in their family.

“But I can’t seem to move on. Every time I think about my wedding, I feel this bitter pit in my stomach because she took away a moment that was special for me,” she continued.

“She, on the other hand, thinks I’m being dramatic and says I should be happy for her instead of “making everything about myself.”

Do you think she’s wrong for not being able to move past this?
