    Advice on how to handle it? I'd suggest growing up a bit.

    If your brother has been with her for 10 years and she is having your brothers baby, then she IS part of his family, and so by default, yours. To be honest, your post reads like a teenager has written it. If you think your brothers girlfriend can "take your place" in your family then thats an issue with your family, not with the girlfriend. Is there room for only one of you?

    Maybe she should not have stuck her nose in, but isn't it nice to know she cares about your mother enough to do that? I care a lot about my OH's mother and I do get annoyed if she's upset over something. She's a lovely person and I care. My oh appreciates that.

    To say that your brother, in an obviously comitted relationship (10 years is a long time) having a baby is the "worst thing" to have happened stinks of immaturity, selfishness & jealousy.

    Hi all,

    Need some advice on how to handle this,, my brothers girlfriend has completely taken my place in my own family!!! Shes been around for 10 years and doesnt seem like she is going anywhere fast!!! She is the most irratating annoying person and I cannot stand to be around her!! she is always down in my parents house even whemn my brother is not there... so she is always there and I wont go down when she is there... she has tried previously to stick her nose into things involving me and my mother and sees herself as a family member.. but the worst thing has happened... I found out 5 months agao that I was pregant and I thought great opportunity to build a relationship with my mom.. but she is also pregnant, so now I feel that she has completely taken my place... This is really upsettin me and I really dont know what to do about it if anything???:( someone out there give me some advice!!!!!!!!!! I am so close to losing my rag and just telling her to F off!!!!!

    so would most people if someone had been in a relationship with their son for a decade and are pregnant with their grandchild.

    my advice would be to calm down and grow up a bit...you seem VERY immature. granted you are probably more emotional lately due to the hormones flowing through your body...i know what that is like, it can help make you take things more personally BUT it's not an excuse to be so selfish.

    she IS a part of the family, 10 years is a good proportion of someone's life and she has spent it with your brother....and she is growing a new human to add to the family...as are you.

    it's important to share...most kids learn that at about 4-5 years old.
