Okay ... a little update on the pregnancy. Rhyce's mother knows, actually his whole family know, its the thing about get together's there not really any privacy. I was at work, so I couldn't be there. But his mother seems happy about it. So I told my mother over the phone, while she was at work, mainly because I thought it would be easier, she took the news okay, but I can't help feeling she's going to try and push me to have an abortion. Just a feeling I get. As far as I know, my dad doesn't know yet, and I'm hoping to put that off. You know when things like this happen, it doesn't matter how old you are, you're still shit scared that your parents are going to yell and scream at you. Okay, that could just be me. But hey, I know what my mother is thinking. Rhyce and I were supposed to be married before we had kids. Oops. :lol: Meanwhile, Rhyce hitailed it out of here, to go and do table top roleplaying. So not fair. I'd rather be anywhere but here right now.
So much for being 21 and an adult, it definitely doesn't feel like that right now.

Awww RR. I can't believe Rhyce hightailed it! You tell him to get his butt back to you and support the woman he loves!!!!! How could he?
Oh well, i am glad things are getting out in the open. It will make it quicker for issues to blow over, and they will.
And you just remember that you ARE 21 and not a kid anymore. Don't let your parents browbeat you into anything you don't want to do okay. Be strong and stand up for yourself (even when Rhyce doesn't!)

whats supposed to happen and what actually happens are often 2 totally different things.. just stay strong and don't allow yourself to be pushed into anything you don't want to do..
I was 19 when i got pregnant with my oldest and i totally freaked out about how my parents would take it so i completely understand the feeling.. and you know something when i found out i was pregnant with my daughter i was still nervous about telling my dad and i was 27 at the time.. I guess when it is planned and known by the family that your trying for a baby its easier to tell them as opposed to falling pregnant unexpectedly (as was the case with all 3 of my children) because when that happens you have to try and let it sink in for yourself aswell as figuring out the perfect timing to tell everyone else..
well i guess its time for me to stop rambling lol i wish you all the best :hugz:

I can't believe your "bf" ditched you because your having a baby. He is going to miss out on the most wonderful things in his life! :sadman:

I THINK that he just left for the moment....as in left her to deal with all the people they are telling, etc....at least I hope that is what she meant--I had to read that hightailed it part a couple of times myself? Eek...anyway, I know how ya feel RubyRose, I actually was 30 when i got pregnant, and I found out, THE DAY I was about to book the reception hall for my planned wedding! We had no plans to have kids, and I was a little freaked, honestly, and we decided not to do the planned wedding (during which I would have been 5.5 months along...NO WAY. But anyway, i was nervous telling my mom, etc. Even at that age! Even though were were engaged and in the midst of planning the wedding! So I know how wierd it can be. Just (as others have said) do what makes you happy, and do keep in mind that you are an adult, even if you feel a little intimidated.

Hey, I was 5 months pregnant when I got married, and you can't tell at all, in the pictures...the only difference was that I drank sparkling cider instead of champagne. :D

Hee hee, well, the way it worked out, and all our running around, and moving across country, etc...it ended up being 4.5 months into my pregnancy that we actually married! For the most part you can't tell,, but I am very glad, that I didn't wait the extra month, cause if we had, well, there would have been NO mistaking it in my case!

Congratulations on your pregnancy RubyRose :hugz:

I just wanted to let you know that babies almost never abide by the plans that we've made for our lives. They seem to follow their own schedule :) So I hope your parents don't give you any grief. I wonder if we ever stop feeling like children when it comes to our parents, LOL.

Well at least the news is out for the whole family to know. You are 21 and engaged right?? You are not a little girl and fully able to make decisions for yourself. It's ok that you are nervous and scared about your parent's reaction..... that can happen at any age LOL Just remember you are your own woman and no one can bully or guilt you into anything. If you and your finacee are happy about the baby that's all that counts.

Keep us posted over in the Family and Parenting forum!! Best wishes!!

Thanks guys!

Oh and I just want to clear it up. Rhyce hasn't left me, he just left my house (we don't live together yet) cause he didn't want to be around when my parents found out.

Oh and my grandparents know. My grandmother is thrilled. Well she is 72, and she thought she wouldn't live to see her great grandchildren.

Yeah everyone's pretty much having the 'well its bad timing, but what can you do about it' sort of reaction.
