Am currently 11 weeks pg with DC4. Planned and much wanted pregnancy, and have always been very open about the fact that DH and I would loe to have 4 children.
Now that I am at the stage where we are telling people about the baby I find myself feeling embarrased about the assumptions they will make about us because we've got a larger than average family.
Proven last night during conversation with a friend, I mentioned a family across the road with 5 DC to which my friend replied "bet they don't work"
Just wondered if anyone has felt the same and any tips to deal with it. I want to really enjoy sharing my news with people as I'm thrilled but I can't get over this concern of what people maybe thinking/assuming about our family/situation.
