Oh my lord. Buckle up because this is going to be a long one. So first off I love being apart of a group of moms all due in January like me 😍 I need some opinions on what to do here ladies... So, a little over a week ago we were camping with some of my boyfriends friends, of course once shots started being passed around and I refused to take one the nosiest girl (who I don’t care for at all) says “Oh what are you? Pregnant?” And I said “Yes. actually I am” Now I am considerably younger than these women. They are all in their early thirties. I am 10 years behind 30. They all want to have children but either they aren’t having success in ttc or they are as single as they come. So I kinda take what’s next and chalk it up to jealousy. They said their fake “congrats! So happy for you!” And we left shortly after that. Now, less than one week later, most of the people in the town I live in knew about my pregnancy. Funny how for 3 months there were six people that knew about my pregnancy outside of family and no rumors surfaced. No one else asked. Nothing. But the minute this girl finds out she tells EVERYONE. I’m telling you, people I hardly even know have asked me if I’m expecting. Little bit irritating but whatever. It gets even better. This girl told my former manager. My former manager then proceeds to run her mouth all over town about me spreading fake rumors around. THEN she has the nerve to tell my mother, who knows what’s true and what isn’t, false information like it was the truth!!!! Where do these people get off??? So as if I’m not angry enough yet, I hadn’t told my brother yet that I was expecting and when I went to do so HE ALREADY KNEW BECAUSE OF THESE WOMEN. I was outraged. But that’s not it, former manager then goes on to tell my aunt. An aunt that I wasn’t even planning on telling! She has now outed my exciting news to not only everyone that works for her but my step dads ENTIRE FAMILY. (I was not going to tell them because we aren’t close and they’re pretty judgmental and I’m obviously having a baby out of wedlock. But come on it’s 2018 🙄) I absolutely cannot believe the audacity of these women. I am so angry I don’t even know how to approach the topic. Not to mention, neither of these women are more than an acquaintance and a former boss. Someone please tell me I’m not overreacting and I SHOULD say something. Because my mother thinks I should just let it go. While my boyfriend is just as mad as I am. I don’t understand why people can’t mind their own business 🙄😐

Edit: I think I should also add that it isn’t that I don’t want people to know because I am elated!! I want to scream it from the rooftops! It’s that I want to be able to tell people my exciting news and that’s being ruined for me 😪
