I'm sorry they didn't react like you had
hoped. I hope you have a happy pregnancy
and you get tons of sonograms

lol, your grandmother's reaction was my
grandfather's reaction to finn. he was
appalled that nick and i were living in
sin, and then that had to go and happen.

I just have to laugh at the whole 'living
in sin'!! That was my family to a T.
Everyone was there to cast stones, but I
moved in with him because I had to, not
because I wanted to (well, I wanted to).
But, I didn't hear any of them offer me
somewhere to live...out of sin? Anyways, I
could not tell you how many FAMILY members
asked me if I was pregnant AT my wedding.
Evidentally, that would be the only reason
we would get married.
Not the fact that we had been engaged for
over 2 years....nope....I had to be
pregnant.
I'm sorry that your family wasn't more
supportive. Do you think his family will
take it any better?

Lol, Danielle! They HAVE to respect that
fact that you're married, living in your
own house, and have raised 2 beautiful
children so far, ya know?
My family was shocked when I told them
about my new bambino! But they realized,
the younger the mother, the better. Get it
all over with YOUNG, ya know? (no offence
to any older mommies!)
I can't wait to see the first u/s pic!!!

Don't you just love families?
My family was pretty much the same when
they found out I was pregnant with Alex.
That's why I didn't even tell half of
them, I let my mom do it.
Anyway, I think it's great. What are you
hoping for this time? Either way it will
be adorable just like Macy and Liam.

My parents sorta reacted the same way,
well with joseph my mom goes are you
$hi**ing me? I was like well maybe 5 tests
were wrong haha. I was nervous the 2nd
time around, but i told my mom the same
day i took the test, i went to pick her up
from work and went up to her register and
was like josephs getting a new brother or
sister, she was excited, when my dad
finally found out he just sorta rolled his
eyes. But eh they couldnt say to much, i
was moving out anyways.
Parents are wonderful! hehe

This is so true. My midwife told me the
ideal age for a woman to give birth is 20,
because younger women get over everything
quicker. Sadly there's far too much social
pressure on women when it comes to having
babies.
I'm really happy for you Dani, & I
can't wait to see pics of the new little
one!

Ah I love u guys  I told my inlaws
today and of course they were like what
you dont know what the hell birth control
is? r u crazy? can u even afford another
kid? n of course my brother in law said "
y dont u just get an abortion?" AH i hate
these ppl
my mother in law hasnt really talked to me
since i told them a few hours ago. With
macy she got me two ultrasounds cuz she
worked at the hospital and had been for
like 10 yrs. this place is a new job so Im
hoping she gets me in to an ultrasound at
like 16 weeks to find out what this lil
booger is. But that requires her talking
to me. I think its a girl and hope it is
since this is the way i felt with macy.
queasy all day and poopin all the time.

Wow they sound like a bunch of suckers.. I
can't believe he would tell you that you
should have an abortion. I probably would
have punched him in the face.

Well my mom told me that "there were other
options than having a baby"...so I guess
it's almost as bad as what his reaction
was to you. My family has been totally
unsupportive to say the least. My mom's
already told me that she's not going to be
called grandma, and that she's not being
in the room with me when I deliver.  They aren't even
throwing me a baby shower. I swear, I hear
"I don't think you realize how hard it is
to have a kid...you can't just throw them
in a closet and be on your way" at least
once a week. For pete's sake, I'm almost
21...I think I'm a little wiser than that,
but my family obviously doesn't think so.
LOL, ok I'm done ranting. I hope you get a
girl like you want, and lots of free
ultrasounds!! Good luck.

good god this makes me mad, look at your
children, theyre always well dressed and
clean, i think your mother in law needs to
keep her mouth shut. of course you're
young, but you're married and have income
and you are doing well with 2 beautiful
children already, i agree with sam, i
would have punched him in the face.
& fairytale, I'm sorry about your
mother, that's why i think it'd be amazing
to have more places where people could go
if they're being kicked out for being
pregnant, I'd let you come live with me
