    yeah... it could have been a little girly outfit I guess.. to acknowledge 'yay' it's a girl.

    oh and I think the hair-do is a great pressie for yourself! Always spend gift money on things you wouldn't normally buy yourself. If you wouldn't have had it done normally.. then good on you!

    Try not to stress about it. It might be a one off. There was probably no malice behind it. Perhaps see if it becomes a pattern of them not showing #3 as much attention, and see if it's worth bringing it up with them.

    The horrible thing with stuff like this, is we sit and home and stew about it, while their happily going about their day, oblivious to how they've made us feel. Sometimes it's best to just let it slide and try not to let it get to you.

    ps. I can't believe how close you are to having the baby! OMG! Hope it happens soon!

    FJ, my MIL hasn't even bought Nina something, and she's 2 months old now. She said she doesn't feel she needs to buy anything as she's got it all! :mad:

    I've never had the best relationship with her, but I thought since I've given her her first grandchild she'd want to be more involved. She's been away for 5 weeks now visiting relatives and only emails now and then telling us what she's up to, not even asking about Nina.
