Okay, while pregnancy is exhausting and you feel worn out and tired... it is NOT a reason to make others do things for you.
If she is asking you politely for help and not expecting it all the time that's different. But if she's, like you say, making you her slave... my advice... make yourself scarce. In other words, don't be where she is too often. If she's in the living room be in the back room. If she's on the front porch, be in the backyard. Don't be within yelling distance and you should be okay.
Also, be sure to tell her that you understand she's pregnant and don't mind helping here and there... but you are not going to wait on her hand and foot, that you have your own life and if you were pregnant you would never do this to her.

You are not obligated to be your sister's slave. Pregnancy is not a disabling condition and it's best for her and for her baby if she fends for herself as much as possible. Besides that, you have to have your own life. It's OK to lend a hend every now and then, of course; but don't let things get out of hand. Also, consider that your sister might be a little lonely for company or might be a little scared, especially if this is her first preganancy. Help out, yes, but set limits too.

her being pregnant doesnt make her not able to do things. tel her to get up off her bum and do it herself. you will help her as she gets to the point that she cant do things no more easy, but untill then she cant be lazy. tell her how you feel. just because shes pregnant doesnt give her a excuse to be doing what she is.

Tell her being pregnant doesn't make her disabled. Refuse to do things for her that aren't necsarry.

Why do you think you should be her slave????? SECONDLY YOUR SISTER BETTER GROW UP FAST AS SHE WILL NOW BE A MOMMY AND NOT A CHILD.

she isn't doing anything you aren't allowing her too...we teach people how to treat us...if you don't want to be her "slave" then grow a pair and tell her to do it herself!
