I was so excited to share with them, but all I got was disappointment

Paola • |26| Mama to a baby boy + baby #2 on the way 💛👦🏽🤰🏽

Okay, so I’m 24, married for 3 years and we’ve been TTC for about 6 months. Hubby and I live in the USA while the rest of our family is in Brazil. We have been praying for a baby, as we’ve aways dreamed of being parents!

We run our own business , we are doing great financially and we have our own life.

So I found out I was pregnant and my first instinct was to call my grandparents (who raised me for most of my life) because I needed to share this happiness with them.

I never expected the disappointment in their faces (we facetimed). As soon as I told them, my grandpa was quiet and my grandma said “well, congrats, I mean, it wasn’t the right time for it, but congrats”.

It broke my heart.

I’ve prayed so hard and asked God to bless us with a baby to care for! How is it not the right time? I’m overflowing with love to give, and so is my husband. I understand they are probably worried because in their minds I will always be their little girl, but I honestly wish they faked being excited rather then tell me “well, not the right time”.

I don’t know how to not let this bring me down now. I was so happy, you know?

I just need some support 😔💔
