I (24f) and my brother Nate (27) inherited our grandparents’ house a few years back. It’s a small house with 2 bedrooms. I have a job in the same city so I have been living at our house since after college. Nate lives a few hours away so he doesn’t live with me but we set aside one of the rooms for him.

A few months ago Nate called me and said that his fiancée’s sister Trudy (28) whom I’ve already met a couple times broke up with her boyfriend and would be staying at our house, taking his room. Nate’s fiancée said she would take care of her half of the expense.

Trudy was a little quiet and withdrawn but otherwise OK. She kept to her room most of the time and we had an uneventful first few weeks. Then Trudy found out she was pregnant and her boyfriend came by a few times to convince her to abort but Trudy refused. Nate and his fiancée told me they would prepare another place for her once the baby comes.

Trudy changed to wfh and then stayed in the house almost 24/7. One day she asked me to stop cooking “smelly food”as it made her nauseated. I asked her what kind of things, and she said the smell of meat of any kind.

I told Trudy she can’t expect me to not cook meat her entire pregnancy. She said just until her morning sickness gets better and she feels OK with the smell of meat again (which is too arbitrary for my liking and it is indeed possible to be for the entire pregnancy). I told her I will cut down on the meat but it is unreasonable of her to expect me to go completely vegetarian for her comfort.

Nate called me and said Trudy is using his share of the house and she is entitled to not have to smell meat while she’s so uncomfortable. I told Nate I’m also entitled to cook whatever I want in my own house. I told my friends about this and they said maybe I could have tried for a week first and see if her morning sickness gets better by then instead of just offering to cut down on the meat. AITA?
