Sister Drama-she won't come to the wedding

Long story short...my sister and I have not been on speaking terms for the past 6 months. We have not been on GOOD terms for the last year. Back in January she backed out of my wedding when she found out she was pregnant. She just had the baby yesterday, BTW. Since before she even knew she was...

Long story short...my sister and I have not been on speaking terms for the past 6 months. We have not been on GOOD terms for the last year. Back in January she backed out of my wedding when she found out she was pregnant. She just had the baby yesterday, BTW. Since before she even knew she was prego, I've made it very clear that there will be no person under the age of 18 (with the exception of 1 of FH's cousins who is 17). I nicely told her several times that I ment NO KIDS. Anyway, I sent out invites, all pre filled with the names of the guests specifically spelled out in black & white on the RSVP cards. When I got hers back, it said "Corey & Andrea , 2 of 2.... plusbaby...hope you understand I am bringing the baby" I sent her a message saying that the invite was only to her and her husband. And that she would have to find a sitter for a few hours. So instead of coming to me and talking to me, she went crying to mommy and daddy. Go figure. not even 30 min. later I get a call...

    This day is about you, you don't need people hanging all over the baby the attention should be all on you. Plus you don't want to hear the baby during the ceremony, first dance, etc. You have every right to do this. Like you said the babies grand mother lives right down the street.5 hours will be fine, the baby is an infant she will be asleep most of the time anyway.

    You kind of contradicted yourself there Attitude, you said you don't want to hear the baby during the cermeony, first dance, etc. But then you said the baby is going to be asleep most of the time anyway...

    @ FMS, the barefoot wife! I was saying the baby could possibly cry during those times. But if the baby is with a sitter the baby won't even realize they are gone because they sleep a lot at that age

    I know this is old but I am shocked at how ignorant and selfish it is.
    you are being so petty.
    why should she have to leave her newborn? You could ask that she go to the bathroom if the baby cries which it probably wouldn’t.
    i would never ever leave a new baby with anyone let alone if she breastfeeds. You are asking her to risk her own health with mastitis if so.
    You sound very immature and I don’t blame her.
    I cannot believe you wouldn’t make an exception for your own sister and wouldn’t want your own niece or nephew to be there.
    IMO her baby is more important than your wedding and I hope she stayed at home.
