My sister in law has been struggling to get pregnant for 3+ years now. She has endometriosis and lean PCOS. I have the regular PCOS and I got pregnant after trying for just a few months and I was surprised. We announced in Oct 2023 and I gave birth in June 2024. My husband and I wanted to have our children close in age so we started trying again 9 months pp and having a baby really reset and fixed all my hormones so I'd been having a regular cycle for the first time in my life. I am due in November and at a family gather last Sunday, we announced with a t-shirt on my son that stated Big Brother. She congratulated me at the time but since she hasn't been responding at all. AITA because I should have given her a heads up? She hasn't said she's upset with me and at the same time, I've been on the outs with my brother (her husband) because he likes to push buttons and bully/make fun of people and my family doesn't do anything about it but since having my child, I don't want that behavior around him. So he and I got into it in a text exchange but he never takes anything seriously so he made a joke of it. This is not the first time, he is the type of person that finds it funny to push peoples buttons so he's done this his whole life to everyone. But since then, he hasn't been engaging with me either (this was a couple weeks prior to the announcement). And I had also sent FB invites for my son's 1st birthday. He responded that he wasn't going, she RSVPed yes. I didn't know why he responded no, I figured it was to push my buttons once again but it upset me every time I logged on to check who has responded to the invite so I just removed him so I stopped seeing it because it does get to me and hurts my feelings. I didn't say anything to her or him about it because I just didn't want him to get that reaction out of me. I had contimplated texting her and explaining why I removed him but that they were still invited (of course I expect him to behave but I wouldn't say that). But now that she has been ghosting me, I really don't know what is going on. Is it because of the announcement and she just needs space? I texted her just checking in and asking if she was okay because it's unlike her to ignore me and she hasn't read the message. She has looked at snaps I've sent her and she has seen fb reel messages I've sent her. I want to give her space if that's what she needs but I just feel so bad and idk what to do. Her and I have always gotten along and been friends even through tifs with my brother. Last thing for context, yesterday she posted something on her story that was along the lines of "you know you have a bit heart when you feel bad for doing what is right for you". Am I in the wrong here?
