Today is the day... (unloading stress, venting)
Hello ladies...
Today is when I finally tell my family about my pregnancy. I have been holding the secret in for 14 weeks and 6 days already and it is about time I drop the bomb on everyone. I am definitely showing my pregnant tummy already and I no longer want to walk around sucking in my stomach to avoid getting confronted by anyone.
(Please allow me to vent.)
I know that I should have never hid my pregnancy in the first place, but my relationship with my baby's father has not been accepted at home (I still live with parents). The reason is because we are an interracial couple, and I will not leave my soon to be husband because of such cruel, ignorant, negative feelings anyone could possible have towards him. As much as I love my parents (mom and step-dad), sister and brother, I realized that this is the man for me and he is going to be a great husband and father to my kids.
I will admit though, I am quite nervous as I am the oldest daughter and bearing my mother's first grandson. I know I will disappoint her in some way because she always thought so highly of me and expected me to finish all my education and stabilize my own life before wanting to start my own family, but God is blessing me with this and I will not go against His will. My life goals are not going to be left behind and forgotten, I will place them on hold and will continue praying for strength so that I can resume as soon as I can.
I know deep inside my heart that I'm not making a wrong decision. I know that I must be grateful for this new life inside of me and I will protect my baby from anyone, no matter who, no matter what.
If there are any mothers out there that have gone or are going through the same, I'd appreciate it if you could please drop a line under this post and let me know how you were able to handle this situation. And for those who are believers, please keep me in your prayers.
Thanks for reading this.
