Mum Issues...

So, as a bit of background, I'm 30, very very happily married to my husband of 6 years, and we have 2 healthy kids, who are 4 & 2. My Mum had me when she was 20, and my brother when she was 23, got divorced from my Dad, remarried and had another baby boy when she was 37. She is 51 now. At the beginning of this year we moved across the country from them for my husbands job, but we'll be moving back around Christmas.

Anyway. Earlier in the year, I said to my Mum, "don't tell anyone else, but we are trying for baby number 3!" To which her response was, "I knew you were going to say that". Which was a little disappointing, considering when I told my best friend she was jumping up and down excited. So, my little brother (who is 13) came to stay with us for a couple of weeks while my Mum and Step Dad went to Bali for Step Dad's 50th. While Skyping one day, we decided to tell them the good news that we are expecting. My Mum said, "OH. Ok. How far along are you?".... "Well.... congratulations...." No excitement at all. This was a week ago. She has not asked me ANYTHING else. Not how i'm feeling, what i'm doing about Dr's, nothing. I told her we were going for a scan on Thursday. It's Saturday morning now, she hasn't asked how it went. My best friend, on the other hand, sent me a text message a couple of hours after the scan, to see how I was. This best friend has 3 children under 5, and is pretty busy, but can remember when I've got things coming up. My Mum on the other hand, has only contacted me to say that she is really disappointed that we haven't sent my step Dad a birthday card (which I did, 3 weeks ago, it apparently hasn't arrived). No mention of anything else.

My Mum and I have always been super close. Even my husband is super perplexed by her behaviour. EVERYONE else we've told has been so so excited for us. My In Laws, who I don't always get on with, have been so nice and supportive, asking how i'm feeling, when i'm due, and just being generally interested. I'm just.... confused. Sad. Bleh.
