Being Distant while pregnant

Is it bad that i am being distant from family while pregnant.I am almost 7months and no one really has seen me besides my mom sister and husband everyone else I distance myself from because I want to have a peaceful pregnancy and I don’t want them to feel like they can say rude stuff to me about my baby or body.What do you y’all think?

I don’t think it’s rude at all. I don’t speak to anyone in my inner family not my three siblings or my mom. The constant asking for money and stress from their drama they want me to fix caused lots of stress in my first and a lot this time around so I cut contact back in May and I feel so much better for it. Sometimes not everyone deserves to be in these special moments.

@Rebecca thank youuuu for this .I do have people telling me I’m wrong for not coming around but I don’t feel bad because people are toxic and don’t watch what they say.I hope everything does get better between you and your family and wish you many blessings on your pregnant journey.

@Kourtney yeah this the time where I think you deserve to be the most selfish because it can cause so many health issues and unnecessary stress ❤️ and thank you I hope so too but on their time.

i was literally just crying about this to my fiance. i don’t come from a family where we’re close. my mom was upset that i got pregnant again and didn’t agree with my choices. the last time i talked to her was over 2 weeks ago and she hasn’t reached out since, same with my grandma. i wanted to see if they’d check on me, but they haven’t so i just gave up. i’m tired of being the one to reach out because im sure they talk to their friends whenever they get a chance. this pregnancy made me realize who is really there for me and who isn’t. and if that means not including my blood family then so be it. i deserve peace and not stress

@Kailani I’m so sorry you are going through that. And 100% if even blood can’t reach out then why do I have to continue to do so. But you got this momma we all do ❤️

@Rebecca thank you 🥺 i think the child in me wants them to care but the adult/mom in me is not giving any type of fucks. because i would NEVER let my own child feel the way im feeling

@Kailani THIS. If we wouldn’t want it done to us why would we do it to others?

I think that’s totally fine. I absolutely love my family and have close relationships with my siblings but I’ve been SO tired this pregnancy. I rarely make plans except for random events that I’m looking forward to over the months 😅
