Hey other mommas, I’m having a bit of a problem. So I’m short context, in both my husbands and my family, I will having the first grandson/great grandson in March of this year, Everyone in my family was just like “okay how exciting!” But ever since my older cousin announced she was pregnant with a boy as well due in June, everyone is estatic. It almost makes me feel forgotten. Makes me not want to have a baby shower since I fear no one will show up anyway. I don’t really talk to my family besides my brother and my parents. Idk what to feel but it’s not jealousy or hatred. More just like forgotten.

Siblings jealousy
Sibling jealousy begins in childhood, when parents establish, sometimes unintentionally, an atmosphere of competition between their children.
- Here are some common parental attitudes that can lead to siblings jealousy:
- Making them do the exact same activities; the less talented child will always feel jealous of the more talented one.
- Comparing them: "Look at your brother, he's getting better grades than you in school!"
- Neglect the older child a little when the second child is born.
- The jealousy between brothers is noticeable from childhood, especially when games regularly turn into bickering.

Is it normal to feel jealousy when my son bonds with other more than me. Am I doing something wrong he's 10 months
Ellonda
they're little ppl. Don't you sometimes prefer one family member over another? One friend over another?
It's ok the feeling is common.

It's very normal. But remember they're small people like us. With preferences like us. It's ok for him to not always pick you over others, it's healthy and means he's independent. The jealousy is common.
