Hi and welcome. This forum is great! I'm actually only new to it (probably been on for about 2 or 3 weeks now).

My partner Jo and I are hoping to get pregnant this year. So fingers crossed for all of us.

I have decided not to tell my mum until I'm pregnant (mainly cos at the moment she "doesn't want to talk about it" or "can't talk about it"- she's just a little to straight thinking and believes in upholding high christian values) And yes I am afraid to tell her. But I'm sure the rest of our families will be happy for us. Most of them know that we want to have children.

But your definitely not alone.

I know how u feel? I came out to my parent a little over a year even though it was hard for them at first they accept it and wlecomed Beth as their own daughter. They are so happy that we have decided to get pregnant since I'm not getting any younger. Nthe problem is Beth family, they are conservitive Catholics. She has come out f the closet about 4 times. Her brother at first wild not allow her to be near or alone with the nieces because he thought the gay is a disease that can be caught. Now she says he is better, but he barely directs a word to her. We have been dating for 2 years now and becuase of her family had a private commitment ceremony in Hawaii just us too. Her parents are now starting to accept me. I'm so afraid to tell them our plan. At this point we have decided to get pregnant first and then sit with her parents. There is a big possibility that I will not be allowed back in the house for visits. Since they are all about appearances and how will they be able to explain it to the nieces that Ely is pregnant with out a husband. Beth has told me that if they do not want me to attend family functions becuase of the baby that she will not go and she will cut all ties. I told her no. At the end f the day they are her family and she needs to forgive them and just love them. Hopeduly love will be enough for them to see the wrong and how they are hurting their daughter. But in their eys she is the one in the wrong and she is the one that needs to pray for her sins. I will take it one day at the time snce o ly time will tell us how they will react. I love them dearly so no matter the outcome, I will love them just the same even if they do wrong to us.
