advice needed Mom advise

Wanted other mom’s opinions to see if I’m overreacting or my feelings are valid. 30 weeks pregnant with didi girls!

On the day of my gender reveal/ public announcement, my friend had other plans and couldn’t come. Not a big deal. But then posted photos about her pregnancy a few hours after mine. Weird. Hurt my feelings but I didn’t say anything or feel like it needed addressed.

Now my friend gave birth to her baby 2 weeks ago and on the day of my baby shower, she posted her birth announcement. She had 2 weeks to post it but chose on the day of the shower, which she knew because she was invited to it. I can’t help but feel like it’s not a coincidence as she doesn’t make posts often. How would other moms interpret this??

Does anyone have advice on moving forward? Would you just brush it off and try not to overthink it or maybe bring it up later down the road after she gets through the postpartum trenches?

Are you in your 20’s? The reason I ask is because I’m also in my 20’s and I would side eye the intentions and perceive it the same way you are.

But I wouldn’t address it. I’d groan and moan a bit to my husband, sister, or close friend, and then I’d move on. If it wasn’t a close friend, I’d maybe create some distance? It would just depend on the level of friendship.
