I recently found out I was pregnant which I’m excited for but also nervous because I don’t know how my family is going to react. I’m 27 and living with my fiancé.

I want to have a small little ceremony or something for the wedding. I definitely don’t want anything huge as I just don’t like all that attention. It’s a bit much for me and also for my fiancé. But I would at least like something small. Now though, with me being pregnant, I don’t know if that’s possible and I also don’t want to look like a whale.

Also, I’m terrified to tell my older relatives I’m pregnant before marriage. I just always thought that I would be married first and that is the old fashioned way. Even though a ton of my cousins have done things out of order and my family doesn’t care or never cared, I just feel really weird telling them especially my grandfather.

Maybe I’m overthinking and I should just be enjoying this time rather than worrying about every little thing. I will admit I care a lot and I mean ALOT of what my family thinks of me. I always have and I always will. My friends? Not at all lol. But it’s just because they mean so much. My fiancé is like, it’s not like I’m without a steady job or don’t have a house but still.
