Okay so 14 weeks preggers aged 32 and tomorrow me and my fella are going to tell my parents. My parents are indian and although not 100% strict they worry about people think .
You know the saying "keeping up ?ith the Joneses" well they don't ever hang out with the Jonses but they sure as hell worry about the Jonses.
I live with my fiancé at his parents house and don't have the best paid jobs and my parents are always on at me about saving and getting a better job etc...also my fiancé have decided to hold off getting married for a few years and focus on raising our little one in a loving relationship. My folks are going to definetly not like the fact I am not getting married.
In sep I had a missed misscariage but we told my mum before we found this out and she was so dramatic almost fainting and having to lay down on the sofa, she said nothing for 10 min and then because she was in such a strange way we confided in my little sister who is 22 in hope that mum had someone to talk to when we left. But sister had the worst reaction ever she started to lecture my partner for not doing things in the "right order". She made a great amazing thing seem so awful and this influenced my mum a little at the time. I never told my dad when I told my mum that time as he was recovering from a recent heart attack. Mum then called me after we told her saying we should get married and she would pay for me to go Vegas and the ring (typical over dramatic indian mother) but I said no as I didn't want to do that just because I was with child. mum suggested she would play dumb and we tell her and dad together by taking them for a meal, that never happend as I found at the scan for that pregnancy I had a missed miscarriage. Mum called me after op and said she was worried about me and although she probably didn't mean it her final sentence to me was "ah well next time you can do things in the right order"... Now cut to dec 2014 my partner proposes to me I happily accept but we are in no rush to get married. Parents panic and get over excited about a wedding then Christmas Day I find out I am pregnant. Now 14 weeks and tomorrow we are telling them over a meal at 7pm. Hope I come out alive!
Any one been in the same or similar situation? Any advice before I become public enemy number 1? So scared and anxious. My fiances parents took it well and are relaxed and chilled. I don't even know what to say tomorrow I know my mum is gonna gpeyeball me across the table or something.
