I am 21 years old and my sister is 29 she and I have had an up and down relationship since we were younger. A few months ago I was staying with her along with my other sister until my new place with my boyfriend was ready for move in. She was extremely bossy and disrespectful towards me at times and while living with her I found out I was pregnant. In the beginning of September my sister started an argument with me and my other sister and kicked us out. I haven't talked to her since. To make matters worse a few weeks after she kicked us out I went to get my dog who had been staying with her and she refuses to open the door or answer my calls or texts. She knows my dog is the most important thing to me. I've had her since middle school and my dog was a gift from my mother who passed away from cancer in 2012 so she is so special to me. I'm stuck in a place of whether or not I should even tell her I'm expecting. This is the first baby in our family. But I'm in a position where how do I share such positive news with a person who is purposely trying to hurt me and who hasn't been the best older sister to me. What do you ladies think? Should I try and get my dog back and leave the stress and drama she creates behind? Or should I tell her about my pregnancy? If so how? She's holding my dog away from me so how would I even approach opening the line of communication again? Sorry for the long post I just really want some advice because I'm already 16 weeks along. Thanks for the advice in advance.

She has two dogs of her own my dog staying with her was always temporary until my new place was ready. I have thought about that and my dog will turn 9 around the time I am due and I may have to deal with my dog feeling left out but I love my dog so deeply and want her to know my child. Thank you so much for your advice I really appreciate it.
