I was 20, DH was 22 and we had only been engaged for about 2 months. He wanted nothing to do with planning/saving for a wedding. Said he couldnt afford to save for a wedding then went out and bought a second car! At this point I decided I was going overseas in about 5 months time.
So the day comes around for DH to go pick up his new car. We are driving the 2 hour trip home and I said "I think I'm pregnant" to which he replied "Well, whose is it then?" followed by "How the hell did that happen" I was totally lost for words! About a month or so later on I started bleeding, went to his house to tell him and he showed no concern at all! decided that i would have to leave town, move in with my parents and find a job before I was showing too much!
I forced him into coming to my Dr's appointment where I knew we would be hearing the heartbeat. When we left the Dr's he was a totally new person. So it all worked out in the end thank god!
The funny thing is, I went with him when he had a look at the car he wanted to buy, and fell pregnant around that time as well. The guy who was selling it, had to because his girlfriend was pregnant! My BIL went for a drive in the car with DH and his girlfriend ended up pregnant at the same time, as well as another friend of DH's. All who touched the car in some way. A couple of years later, DH sold the car to a friend with 2 kids and absolutely no more planned - and they ended up having another child. when we told them the story they sold the car to yet someone else who wasnt having kids EVER! and they are having a baby as well!
:-k Maybe I should track the car down to see if it can help us again this time!!
