New to The Bump

Newbie here- :D

Not only am I testing my signature, but I figured I might as well post an introduction. =)

 

I'm 21, live in New Hampshire, and work part time. I'm unmarried, I don't have a fantastic job, and I'm 12 weeks pregnant. Needless to say, I was shocked to find out- but very excited for my little one! Apprehensive and nervous, sure, but excitement is predominant. The SO isn't as excited... or excited at all, really. We've talked about it, and although we're still together, he's explained that he doesn't want kids, never has, never will, etc. I'm hoping he'll change, but his attitude/behavior is poor- to say the least.

 

Not really sure what I'm looking for by posting here.. maybe just a hello, a little moral support? Well, it's nice to meet you all!

Re: Newbie here- :D

  • Well I'd like to say congrats to you on your pregnancy....Maybe as the pregnancy progresses your SO will become more excited. It has a way of changing people, especially when he sees that little baby up on the sonogram screen.

     Heres my story...im 27 and live in Brooklyn, NY.I dont have a fantastic job either, but hey at least we work! Recently divorced (have a 2 yr old daughter from that marriage) Needless to say it was a shock to my SO and I to find we were pregnant after only being together for about 8 months. Right now we are 19 weeks prego with a little girl. But he is very supportive and happy even though hes a little scared because he thinks hes to old to have another baby (hes 43)

     I know its hard when someone attitude is poor, but try not to let it stress you too much youve gotta protect that little baby inside you and stress wont help. Hopefully your SO will come around sooner rather than later.

  • I agree. Hopefully your SO will come around because there is no greater joy than seeing a precious baby develop and be born. Like stated, try not to let it stress you because you don't need and your unborn child doesn't either.  Good Luck and Congrats!
