I know I'm a newbie to the board, but I kinda want to get a feel for the dynamics...so, humor me! And I'll apolpgize if this has been done before/recently![Poll]
I'm bio-parent only--DS is from a previous marriage (and is with us 95% of the time) and DD is from my current marriage. DH has no kiddos other than the one with me.
Thanks for making me smile! You're not insane. Although it sounds like you definately have your hands full and you are a strong woman! My DH has 4 children from a previous marriage and then we have a LO on the way. People think I am insane all the time. We have full custody of all the kids but BM still tries to make our life a living hell...
Too late for the poll, but I am a BM to 1 from a previous relationship and my DH has 3 kids and we have 1 together....and my teenage nephew lives with us.
I'm a special snowflake. I just found out I am pregnant with my(our) first. DH has a 10 year-old from a previous relationship. We are waiting until my first ultrasound to tell her about the pregnancy, but we are guessing it will be hard for her.

I'm a step-parent with bio-children with DH... Bio-child just isn't born, yet. I was torn how to answer that
"To be able to practice five things everywhere under heaven constitutes perfect virtue...gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness, and kindness."

I am a mom who is married (as of next week) to someone without any bio-kids. We will be trying for a couple together right away.
There is no bio-dad in the picture (and hasn't been for many years) There is no contact with the bio-dad/bio-dad's family through their own choice.
