My sister recently let me know that she is pregnant. They already have three children - the youngest of whom is four. They gave me all their baby stuff -I used to joke that I'd give it back if they needed it but they were adamant they would never have another baby.
She says she is very down about the pregnancy, worried and guilty. They were very excited about the other pregnancies. She is worried mainly about the health of the child and their finances. She says she is embarrassed to tell people that she is pregnant at her age.
I wonder if anyone had advice or has been through something similar? Looking back, what helped you come to terms with an unexpected pregnancy after you thought your family was already complete?
