I always dreamed of having at least 4 kids. I had an unplanned pregnancy at 20 with my boyfriend of 4 years. He turned into a coke head when my son was a baby never coming home and I broke it off when I found out. Met my husband when I was 24 he had 2 kids from previous marriage, his ex wife cheated on him multiple times. When things were serious we introduced the kids and we became an instant family. I told my husband when we first started dating that I wanted at least two more kids. He was on the same page he loves kids and is a great father. Fast forward to me being 28 we had our first baby together and 2 years later another. We both make good money our children are well cared for I have a great relationship with my stepchildren. One day we’re at a family party and another mom who also had two little kids same ages as mine asked if I planned on having anymore, to which I responded “It’s up in there, I may want one more but would like to wait and see”. My stepdaughter chimes in and totally embarrasses me and says absolutely not you guys are not having anymore kids. Mind you she’s 14 at the time so I just don’t say anything back as I’m still unsure but I didn’t like her reaction to my conversation. My mother in law baby’s her cuz she was the first grandchild. So now every time me or my husband are at a family party or any event and she sees us holding a baby she goes nope no more for you. Peter no more babies. But always begs my sister in law for more mind you she has 3 and we together have 5 but I feel like it’s no one’s business but ours. We even take the big kids on separate trips and will leave the little ones with my parents so we can do more big kid stuff. They don’t want for anything. My mother in law showed me a picture that someone made for her out of rocks of all her grandchildren in a frame and out of no where she goes see no room for another. I told my husband and he was pissed. I said well I may have one and I may not but either way that’s between us. So now I found out I’m pregnant with my very last baby and I don’t want to tell a sole because of the judgement over having a larger family. To top it off I work in construction which is mostly men so it’s also totally awkward to break my pregnancy. Just don’t know how to handle it it’s honestly giving me anxiety. Sorry for the long rant. I just want to enjoy every drop of my last pregnancy.
