Hi Leah, when I first read your post, I didn't think you were over-reacting or expecting too much at all and I personally think every pregnancy announcement deserves some sort of acknowledgement.
Having just entered my 2nd trimester, my MIL announced the news to my husband's side of the family last week... and no one has congratulated me or DH either. They just look at me and then my tummy and then go off on their merry way.. which leaves me feeling like "well stuff you! Don't expect me to call you when the baby is born". They have a real thing about being told about the birth so I just feel like getting back at them... isn't that awful of me?!
It's a terrible thing when in-laws always find a way to turn such a joyous and wonderful occasion into something to feel sad about..
