Just a little venting

So I'm 9 weeks pregnant and my husband and I are really excited! We have a 19 month old who we love with all our heart but he was not planned and finding out I was pregnant with him was a pretty big shock. This baby was planned and I was so ready to announce it to our families. I have been planning it for like 2 weeks. This past Friday was my birthday and we planned on announcing the news on Saturday (yesterday). I've already confirmed the pregnancy and got my fist ultrasound so I've just been so excited about this. We told my family first because we were going out to eat with them for my birthday. My sister already knew and she's very happy but when we told my mom and grandpa, neither of them seemed excited. They congratulated us but it just wasn't a happy moment. Later that night my mom texted me saying she was excited but like why couldn't you have been excited before? Then today we told my husband's parents and the same thing happened! His mom was like "oh really yay" but it was the lamest shit I've ever heard. His dad is pretty mellow so I wasn't expecting him to jump up and down but like his mom was just like not thrilled. Idk why none of our parents/grandparents seem to be happy. The rest of our families and friends are but we were hoping for more from our parents... It's not like we are terrible parents and we have the money to raise another child. I just can't understand why they don't seem happy about it. Ok long post over. Here is a picture of our son in his special new shirt 🥰

Love the shirt 😍 Don't worry about the grands. It's a generation thing, they just aren't as excited about kids. Especially after the first of each gender. Congrats to you, your husband, and your little man! 🎉

Don’t let anyone rain on your parade! Congratulations on your growing family 😍💕

Thank you! It was just really frustrating seeing their reaction. My husband and I are really excited for our new addition 🥰

with my first pregnancy no one was happy for me in any way but i didn’t let it get to me and i enjoyed my pregnancy to fullest. sometimes people don’t know how to react either!! congrats mamma 💖💖🩵🩵 excited for you and your bundle of joy

also with my first pregnancy my dad said how do you feel about that? after i told him i was pregnant. i was like ummmm well i was excited but not now 😐 and my mom just said thanks for telling me. never got one congrats but babe if you’re happy that’s all that matters 💖💖💖

You can’t control other people’s actions and although you find it bothersome try to not assume they aren’t excited for you. Also older generations are a little less enthusiastic. Congratulations 👏🏻 I have two and they are super close!! 🥰

I think it’s because they know it’s going to be bloody hard with a toddler and a newborn, so it’s more of a ‘oooo, good luck’ than a ‘yaaay congratulations’ like the first 😂 I was in the same boat, and it wound me up but now I’m like yeaaaah, this shit is harddd. It’s worth it though 😂❤️

My second turns 19 months in like 3 days and I’m currently 19 weeks pregnant. My first my family wasn’t very nice about which I got we were barely together living at my at the time boyfriends parents house. With my second we were married & on our own so they were happier that time around. Until I got pregnant again & now everyone is worried about us bringing another one into the picture.. or have been fake happy & it’s annoying but I chose to ignore it & stay happy. Either way we’re having this kid & I know everyone will suck it up & move on once it’s born ❤️
