A little update

nurrieum · April 2014

My last post I mentioned we found out I'm pregnant. Pregnancy exacerbates some of my health problems (fibromyalgia and Rheumatoid arthritis). I struggled emotionally a lot. Father added to that a lot. He took to social media- announced it to the world before we did- and then said that because we didn't plan this pregnancy- we should abort. Among some other really even more terrible and untrue things. He's a drunk. He's on an off the wagon. Thankfully, my mother is wonderful. Since my Father spilled the beans on us- we decided to announce early and did a cute photo shoot.

Bm- so far hasn't addressed it- though she's aware. Which has been great!

SS is Thrilled!!!!! He was ecstatic when we told him. That really warmed my heart. Bm has changed jobs and changed her lifestyle a bit/ She is seeing SS much more. We're still working on things though the pregnancy has changed our finances a bit. The dynamic of our relationship with BM is getting a lot better. I've been working really hard on assertive directness. That's been going better. There hasn't been anything beyond stupid petty (and easily squashed) stuff in a long while.

Dh and I have taken to praying for Bm together more. We've done that on and off but we've been really making a point about it. It's helped us a lot.
