My in-laws and I have never been on the same page, but we are able to act cordial when in the same room. I know they wish my husband had married a girl who was a devoted Christian and dressed like a Duggar girl (something they have slyly mentioned before). They are very old school Christian who believe in the "wives serve and are 2nd to their husbands," which is 100% not me or my beliefs.We live states away from our family & recently welcomed our 2nd baby into this world. My in-laws have done nothing to acknowledge this except hold the baby and post a photo on social media bragging about how this is grandkid # whatever. I feel bratty saying this, but I am disappointed that they didn't even take the time to find a small stuffed animal or even a card to acknowledge our sweet little arrival. My husband got a congratulations on being a father text while I got nothing. They literally have made no mention of me carrying and delivery our baby. They did however give my adult husband quite a bit of money for his birthday while our baby got nada. They also have left their takeout trash for us to clean, which maybe in their mind counts as a gift. They do spoil his two sisters newest babies like crazy.Do I bring this up to my husband? I am not looking to start a fight, but I feel hurt that our baby wasn't even acknowledged with a simple text or card. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2RbyNtP
