My fiance's family is pressuring me to get pregnant, what should I do?
My fiance and I have not even been together for a whole year and weren't planning on getting married till next year. We want children( I already have a son from a previous relationship) but don't feel that the time is right. Besides us not being married yet, we're not in a position to raise another child. Both of us are stuggling to gain our financial footing and aren't even living together yet.
Here comes the kicker... We've been getting pressured lately by his mother and grandmother to get pregnant. His grandmother is in poor health and wishes to see a grandchild from her only grandson/ oldest grandchild. Im currently on the Implanon bith control and his mother said to me, " I have a pocket knife, we could fix that real quick". I know she ment it jokingly but really? We have been planning to start trying for a child after my birthcontrol expires which also happens to coincide with our wedding date but Nannaw's not sure she'll make it that long, she's 85. I'd love nothing more than to make her wish come true but I just don't feel ready for another child yet. What should I do? I also don't want to hurt her feelings, she's very emotionally sensitive...
Do not let them rush you. Explain to the grandmother that she can adopt your son as her GREAT grandson in the mean time while you and fiance are trying to get financially stable.
Talk to your fiance. He needs to tell his family to leave you alone.
keep the bc in and just say you been trying..........lying is never good, but they need to know there place with that.
It's none of their damn business. YOU and your fiance decide when it's the best time to have children since you'll be the ones raising them.
A question for those who have kids close in age..
When was your due date and when did you give birth?
