Welcoming a new baby into the family should be a time of happiness and harmony between parents and their adult kids. In many cases, though, it turns out to be anything but. There are two things that bring up old issues and grudges between relatives like no other, and they are weddings and producing a grandkid (if they are one of the first in particular).
It could be argued that when you are pregnant, you have enough problems to worry about without having to think about your family's demands. Still, that doesn't stop some parents from causing a fuss. Parenthood is a topic that everybody has an opinion on and those who are closely related to you usually do not hold back in sharing it.
What's even worse is how some grandparents-to-be try and live vicariously through their expecting children. Like it or not, it isn't their place to do that.
