My BIL/SIL were upset about finding out about a family pregnancy when they have removed themselves completely from the family and do not attempt to stay in touch with any of us anyway. My other SIL certainly didn't feel the need to spare their feelings and had told all of the rest of us that were actually genuinely happy for them face to face about her pregnancy. It was through my FB status saying how excited I was to be an Auntie that they got their panties ruffled. <br /><br />However, if you're on speaking terms and have no ongoing issues... Yep, that's crazy! I just think logically people would want to share the news more personally!Chelsihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09485526009895716594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2364923401154898736.post-8019697206505040632009-11-14T15:48:10.260-08:002009-11-14T15:48:10.260-08:00First of all, I would be way too excited to tell p...First of all, I would be way too excited to tell people about my pregnancy just to see the excitement in there faces!!!<br /><br />I would say facebook has gone a little too far for my taste.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14933184161110219735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2364923401154898736.post-83353690230209131882009-11-12T08:19:15.051-08:002009-11-12T08:19:15.051-08:00I would be extremely pissed, but I am also extreme...I would be extremely pissed, but I am also extremely close to my BIL and his fiancee!Prissy Southern Prephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17081921449953259580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2364923401154898736.post-76116046458080755562009-11-12T04:39:39.966-08:002009-11-12T04:39:39.966-08:00Oh wow!

I can understand letting all your friends know the sex via facebook or something, but that is after you've called your family and really close friends to tell them first.
