Telling People. Help!

Ira

Hi!

My husband and I got our positive yesterday! I couldn’t be happier, he is still in shock. We had decided to stop trying last year after he had a conversation with his father about how having a second baby was a bad idea since we were not in the best financial place, his music career was finally moving along, and both our day jobs sucks.

Currently, his parents take care of our daughter on Sundays so we can work. But his dad mentioned if we had another baby I might have to quit my job. My husband and I took it to mean they wouldn’t want to take care of two kids. Which, in all honestly, I completely understand and I’m not mad about. But my husband feels that they just don’t want another grandchild. Now he is scared of their reaction.

We agreed he would take care of all the medical calls (setting appointments etc) and I would tell both of our families. I just not sure how to tell his parents now that I know there is a chance they don’t want another kid.

They are wonderful with my daughter. She is their only grandchild, and they treat her like a princess. His mom was there when she was born (she and my mom were my rock during delivery), so I want to think they will love this new baby too. I just need some advice as to how to best break the news. Any advice ?
