Our protagonist was probably bottling up these feelings for months. It's also hard to call out a new mother who is talking about their son; maybe they brushed it off every time because it's pretty normal to be excited about your baby hitting milestones. However, she was way to blatant with her weird competitiveness and totally crossed a line.

Woman accuses sister of "stealing her thunder" by having premature baby instead of giving birth at the same time like they planned, later brags about her healthy baby's milestones: "Stop trying to one-up us"
Being the firstborn child is one thing, but being the first grandchild of a new generation of cousins is on a whole other level. For a long time, they are treated like royalty, pampered, coddled, and fawned over by every family member as the first baby in the family. However, when more siblings and cousins start being brought into the world, firstborns are inevitably relegated to the position of free family event babysitter. Still, the aura accrued from simply existing as a firstborn is incredibly high.
In our story today, a pair of sisters agree to get pregnant at the same time. On the surface, the women seem to want to support each other through the trials and tribulations of pregnancy, but when one woman has medical complications that result in an early birth, the other gets jealous of all the attention the baby gets as the firstborn grandson. After carrying full term, she begins bragging about her baby's health in comparison to our protagonist's premature son. Get all the details of this unhinged story by scrolling down.
