I do understand your situation. If you stick to your true self you will be happier. The family are the people who are being selfish, not you. The family wants you to be who they expect and are disappointed when you go fem. The family seems to only wish the boy they raised to be a man they can be proud of, but of course they should be proud of who you are as an individual.
This site and others have helped my to be stronger in my transition and I have learned to believe in myself and not be offended or depressed because others disapprove. You are on top of your transition and should be happy.
My family supports me except for my wife, she tolerates my transition. She sees changes and realizes I am not backing down. Now we share jewelry and buy pajamas for each other. I agreed to be respectful of her wishes to not dress in the house.
Good luck, All will eventually work out in time.
