My wife recently had a miscarriage a little over weeks ago. She only told a handful people about it: a few close friends, her older brother, and her parents. Because of what happened, her parents came to visit us this weekend. Once they were at our house, her brother more or less invited his family and their other sibling's family over to inform the entire family that they were pregnant with their second child. I felt that the timing was awful as they were only several days pregnant and that they should have waited until my wife had gotten over her miscarriage. I wanted to throw him out of my house at the very moment, but just sat there in disbelief of the lack of consideration for his sister's feelings. I am filled with rage now, but my wife told me not to say anything.
Am I justified in being angry, and, if so, how should I handle the situation? BTW, he also preempted our wedding by getting engaged after our engagement and slipping the wedding in before his sister's.
