Today, my mom told me she wouldn't be able to leave my middle-aged brother at home for Christmas in order to meet her first grandchild. FML

Unless your brother has some sort of disability that does not allow for him to be alone for extended periods of time, she just chose him over you and your new baby and she needs to know how upset that makes you. A middle age man can take care of himself. If he can't, that is 100 percent her fault and she needs to give him a sink or swim moment.

Your brother must be very special ... one way or another.

To me it sounds like he's such a ****-up as a person that they don't trust him alone in their house and they don't trust him around the baby, or else they'd drag him along too.

Why should he spend xmas alone regardless of disability? Invite him too ffs

I'm no trying to be negative, but I think that it's just her excuse. Maybe she didn't agree with some choices you made?

Well it's a bit harsh to leave anyone alone at Christmas. The fact that you don't seem to have invited him is really quite mean.

You don't know op's relationship with him. Just the fact someone's family doesn't make them a good person.

But who wants their brother spending Christmas alone? Can't the parents meet their grandchild another time?

take him with her? how hard is that, he's also an uncle to this child, is there a reason she wouldn't want to bring him too?

Seriously - does your brother have a neurological disorder or a physical disability or something? Does your mother just favour him over you? Did you and your brother just recently have a fight and he's coming off far worse emotionally? Details, OP - they're important!

welp. now she'll never meet him. If her grandchild means that little to her then she doesn't deserve to have them in her life.

She doesn't trust him would be my guess. In a way this should be their FML.
