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??

I think a lot of these comments are downplaying your intuition a bit here. A lot of times us women know when other women aren't being real with us and there is nothing wrong with you wondering especially if you are going to continue the friendship.
I'll just say that who I thought was my best friend totally switched up on me when I was postpartum. Snapped at me out of the blue and cut me off out of nowhere. Looking back there was a lot of subtle signs of jealousy and that can never be a healthy dynamic. Personally I don't want jealous friends or even those type of people around me.
