MIL hoping for pregnancy news soon....

[luckymum1]

hi girls,
when i was preg with dd, my partner told his mum we were expecting and her reaction was very suprising...she yelled at him and told him he was a bloody idiot and stormed off! im ttc again and i wonder what her reaction will be this time when it happens????
his parents dont make a great effort to see dd, luckily i have fantastic parents who dote and spoil her!
best of luck everyone!!

My mum is itching to be a grandmother. Recently she started counting months to work out how quickly after my wedding (which is in 3 weeks) she might be a grandmother. I told her we weren't planning on starting to try for a baby for at least a year after the wedding, even though this is our second cycle trying.

I mainly told her that because I want her to have the experience of being surprised when we break the news. I'd prefer her reaction to be "OMG, that's great. I'm so happy for you both" rather than "Oh good, it finally happened for you".

Both my parents and IL's are going to be fantastic grandparents to my bubba though. I'm very lucky Although, I've already warned my mum that she has to give up smoking before she can hold the baby I figure it's the best incentive for her to finally kick that disgusting habit

Krystie - yup! that's exactly why we didn't really say anything about ttc for a baby! since the wedding we've not said a word! But parents just 'know' they know without you even telling them!!! lol your mum would just know... lol

i can't wait to have a baby and for my mum and DH's parents to be grandparents!! (mum already is) they'll be so excited and I just know they'll be so doting... I can already tell my MIL just wants to retire from their business and be a grandma!! I just hope it happens soon! this waiting is so so hard...
