Is it wrong to wish a pregnant mum happy mothers day?
I said happy mothers day to my pregnant sister, shes due her first baby in May and boy did she go off on one, said she didnt appreciate it and it was horrible and not to ever say stuff like that to her again, she says it's a jinx....im gutted, totally devastated, i was just trying to be nice, all focus was on myself and my mum as both of us are parents, and i thought it would be nice to involve my sister
Now I feel like a complete ***** and dont particulally want to face her now.
Today was hard for me, i have my gorgeous little boy but I actually lost a baby at the beginning of the year. Sadly i never felt i could tell my family, and so only my partner, who is working away in Iraq, and I know this
No, sorry my loss has nothing to do with it, just maybe why im feeling so down, maybe it wouldnt have got to me so much. I just didsnt do it to upset her, i just felt she deserved to be spoken to, i felt from the min i was pregnant with both that i was a mummy. I'm so upset, i feel stupid for being so upset, but god forbid anything happend now, i'd be blamed

Your sister totally over reacted. Last year, when I was pregnant, my husband bought me flowers and a card for mothers day. I was so touched!

When, exactly, does a woman become a Mum ?. My guess would be at conception, no matter how long a Baby/Child/teenager may Live, sadly there is No garantee to Life, once the process of being a Mum starts though the Job/Role/Title is yours for Life. God Bless All Mum's, past present and Future.

I wouldnt say its wrong no, as she is technically a mother, but her baby just hasnt arrived yet.. its highly unlikely that she is gonna lose her baby now as she is way past the safe point, i dont honestly know why she went off on one, i wouldnt, i would be touched, as people do tend to forget about us pregnant mum's on mothers day... as we are technically a mum..
she might have just taken it the wrong way and she is bordering on the verge of caution as 'you never know' if you get me... but next time you see her tell her sorry and tell her why u said it and i'm sure she will be touched, or text her/email her and tell her, say you didnt mean to offend her but u just wanted to involve her somehow as u felt all the attention was on you and your mum and you thought she might want to be involved in it all...
She will understand, i can assure you! x

Is it Mothers Day in the U.K. today? Anyway, your sister overreacted, I am pregnant and if it were Mothers Day here in the U.S. I would feel special if someone wished me a Happy Mothers Day! I would not get upset at all, I am a Mother to my child already, I am already taking care of her, right? She is probably just hormonal...

Dont really know what the last bit has to do with this question, but no it is not rude at all.
That is the whole fun of being pregnant. Becoming a mum.
Maybe she was in a bit of a mood anyway 2day.
U didnt do anything wrong.

First of all, I am sorry for your loss. Second of all, she may have went off on you like that because of her hormones. When women are pregnant they SOMETIMES can make a big deal out of something so little. (Atleast that's what I did, anyways). I wouldn't worry about it too much, just apologize for upsetting her, and just let her know that you just wanted to be nice!

She overreacted to a really nice thing,I think. You did something to try to be positive about it all (her pregnancy) and congratulate her on being a mom,because she already is,even if the child isn't born yet. She may just be hormonal and out of whack,so I wouldn't look into it too much.

Get her some flowers, or a box of chocolates. I always get my Mum stuff like hand-cream and moisturiser because she loves them. If there's a perfume your Mum likes that's not too expensive, try getting her some. xx :)
