Help! I haven’t told my whole family I’m pregnant. My “family” also doesn’t check on me or reach out to me. Should I feel bad ?
I am 14 weeks pregnant I told. My brother and sister who don’t really care or reach out and my family is very self centered they barely check on me. I don’t feel inclined to rush and tell them. What would you do ?

If they're not bothing with you, why bother with them 🤷🏼♀️ communication goes 2 ways, if they check on you then sure tell them, but if not, thats their loss
I wouldn’t say anything. There’s family that doesn’t even know I have one kid let alone two. I stopped chasing after people when I realized how much it was hurting. I barely speak to my father as is. The only reason he knows my second child was born is because she was born on my birthday and he texted me happy birthday and asked what I was doing
I didn’t tell my family until I was basically showing at five months you can tell them whenever you want to it’s your choice if they get upset that’s on them not you

Your child deserves people in their life who will invest in them and make them a priority. If you prioritize people who don't prioritize you, your child will learn from that, and it will be normalized. I'm learning that in my own life. Just because *I* have a past with someone doesn't mean that my child's future has to be connected to that person, especially not if that person doesn't respect or care for me. If they don't do the bare minimum for me, they won't/can't for my child, and both of us deserve better than that. Just my 2 cents!
