If I really am pg now...

EcoBaby

And I don't think I am, but taking a test just in case...

I think I would get a lot of shitty comments from my friends and family. Yesterday, I casually mentioned that I was concerned I was pg to a friend, and she said, "That would be a disaster!" I was like, "No, actually it wouldn't." I thought that was bitchy. I don't want to get pg for another 2.5 yeras, but if I did, it wouldn't be a disaster. And when I casually mentioned something to my mom, she said, "OH my. I hope not!" WTF?

 Anyways - for those who are trying to get pg, or who didn't try but are pg anyways - how did/will your family and friends react?

You know I am going to tell my mom that I am PG - she will probably faint...especially since I had my tubes tied after Katie...LMAO....

My side of the family would be happy. They know we are ttc right now, and wanted to start just before I went back to work knowing that it probably will take a while with dh working oot.

My dh's family doesn't understand why we want 3 kids, let alone 2 under 2. But they will be happy to add another one. DH is an only child.

I get comments like those too and I found out it is because they thought I didn't want to be pregnant again so they are "sympathizing" with me lol. I was so sick of comments like that so I just brought it up.

My family would be supportive because we've hinted we want another one somewhat soon.  Although my sister would be a major biitch because she has a 2 yo DS and she wants to start TTC but her doctor hubby doesn't.

hmm My coworker ( I was pg with her last year ) announced she was pg when her DD was 6 months old, and honestly, my first thought was WOW! Not because of $ issues, or anything like that, but to ME -- that is just soo soon (hence my boys being 3.5 years apart LOL)

maybe that is where they are coming from?

ps, I did NOT tell my coworker it would be a disaster though....

Yeah you wonder why people say stuff like that.  If I got pg right now, sure it's not ideal but it's certainly not a diaster!!

we are not trying right now and don't want to be preg. for a couple years....however our parents would be happy.... friends would probably have comments and my principal wouldn't be too pleased I imagine since I missed half of last school year.
