So I'm 22 and currently living with my boyfriends parents and mine as we commute from place to place I gave birth to my DS on the 12/12/19 I am now pregnant again with a second baby and really scared to tell my Dad about this pregnancy due to the fact the first time I told him he never really wanted to talk about me being pregnant as well as how close the two pregnancies are together. My Ds is now 5months And my dad loves him to bits , his always asking to see him when I'm at my boyfriends house and always ask for pictures . i feel cause I'm not married and don't have my own house he will be really disappointed and think "what a stupid girl having babies with nothing in life " however in the next year we will eventually get a house and get married .I mean I've told my mum. About it and she said it's best I tell my dad as soon as possible so it can sink in ,she is really disappointed as she said I haven't given enough time to my ds to spoil him I am absolutely terrified about telling my dad I need help

You're an adult! It's your body and your life so your parents will have to suck it up. They'll probably change their tune once DC2 arrives anyway. Focus on the positives of a small age gap and not the negatives.

I have 2 boys 12 months and 2 days apart... and if anything my first got extra attention when I was pregnant because I felt guilty they're now 17 months & 5 months... you should maybe try and get your own place because it will be carnage living with parents with 2 under 2... or it could be a blessing to have a helping hand, either way it's your body, your baby and upto you who you tell and when
