How do you deal with family?
My sister asked me when I first told her I was pregnant, if she could throw my baby shower. I told her yes. Now she’s making it about her. She asked me if I wanted it coed and I said yes. She has made it a females only baby shower. Going against what I was wanting, just because she doesn’t like my fiancé. Her other excuse is that “it is not traditional to have men there” the way I view it, it’s not just my child and I want to celebrate that day with the man I love there as well.
I’ve told them how I feel about it multiple times and they just keep ignoring how I feel.

I'm so sorry that you're going through this. Especially that you shouldn't have to worry about anything. But girl tell her its your baby shower along with your decisions and plans or you will find someone else to throw one for you! Without her being invited....Its tough love. But I was lucky enough to have my aunt assist me. She bought everything with the help of my mom. Stand your ground. Know who your village is. You will lose some and gain some and it will show true friendships and love.
