So, I told my parents...

I told my parents DF and I are expecting and let's just say it didn't go over so well at first...My mother gave me a huge lecture about being responsible and my DF had about enough and blasted my mom....He is usually very quiet but, after about twenty minutes of her telling us that life shouldn't go in this order and that she had some weird intuition, he told her to get on board and it was going to happen whether she liked it or not. Let's just say she was pi**ed... Hmm, it seems though that she is getting a little better as the days go on. She's asking questions and being a bit more interested then she was last week... I hope it get's better from here....Now, to plan a wedding in ten weeks...HMM

Re: So, I told my parents...

  • Glad you were able to tell her. But that stinks that she didn't respond better, you are an adult. I guess it's good she is coming around. Happy wedding planning!

  • Ugh. I'm sorry she gave you guys a hard time but I'm glad to hear she's coming around a bit. A baby is a blessing no matter the circumstances IMO. 
  • Im glad your mom seems to be coming around and kudos to your fiance for not taking her nonsense and standing up for the two of you. You've got a good guy there. Good Luck with your planning

  • I too am glad she is coming around and I have a feeling as you get closer, she will get better.  She certainly will be a different person when she holds her grandchild. 

    Good for you fiance to stand up for you and your relationship!  He is a keeper. 

    Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy and in planning the wedding!!!!

  • Happy wedding planning and remainder of your pregnancy! It's probably a relief that they know now. No pregnant lady should be stressing. I strongly feel that they will come around more as they get used to the idea that they are going to be grandparents.  Do DF's parents know yet?

  • I'm sorry things are 100%, but I'm hoping they get there for you soon.  Happy planning; enjoy!
