Question

What would you do if you did not feel welcomed by your boyfriend's family and had a baby on the way?

Answer 1

First of all, marriage is never option or could be but seriously thik about it. I am a single mom, I couldve married the men that I have a child with but when you marry someone you marry their family as well, confrontations arise, so what you didnt do things way his family expected but do things that a right for you and your relationship

Go through pregnancy together see how it goes then decide, I deem marriage to be sacred but getting married becuase you have a child with someone, thumbs down, your life is no longer youre own when they baby lies in your arms and grows and you grow with that baby so think about this

HIS PARENTS, I dont talk to my son's biological grandfather he is a drunk and so is his new wife, his life is drinking so srew him, why endanger my child. As dar as his grandmother I dont punish her for the sins of her son, which is my sons father not a dad maybe a spe$M donor but I do what is best for my boy always and pray on it everyday, talk to your BF"S parents ask them what the discomfort is, whats the worst things youre going to hear the truth... It'll stink but so be it, you tried thats all that matters this isnt a who likes who matter this is a who loves and nurtures that baby matter he/she is your lifeline, dont sweat it let nature course in God's time

Much love God Bless

Answer 2

You aren't dating the whole family. Be nice to them but don't go out of your way.  Hopefully when the baby comes they will treat you better. If not its their loss.  Eventually they will come around.

Answer 3

Keep my head up high..realize you are a good person..

Answer 4

Get married

Answer 5

Speak to them whenever you see them be cordial..and go on about your business.  

Answer 6

i would expect my boyfriend to tell them that i didn't feel welcome. if they didn't make an effort to accompany me, i wouldn't go around them. and i would expect my boyfriend to support that since i would be carrying his baby

Answer 7

Accept that some people are just mean and evil.  But once they think your relationship is serious, they will probably grow to accept you.  And everyone likes to see a cute baby!

Answer 8

I'm in the same situation, but i don't have a baby on the way. just be really positive and kind to them. don't give them any reason to not like you. the fact that you are expecting a baby will keep them from wanting to get to know you. the whole situation is as hard on them as it is on you. everyone should be trying to make the best of it and put there personal feelings a side.  

Answer 9

For one, don't expect them to change. My husband's family has serious issues and they put everything off onto us. I don't know if they approve of me or not *married 2 yrs. to him!* but once the baby came, they were just thinking the baby was theirs! You need to speak to your bf about this now, because once the baby comes, they could completely throw you out of the picture and make this baby be their new baby and focus on your bf. You don't want them to step in as the parents. So be careful.

Decide if you want to get married or not. Once you do, his family has to live with it one way or another. They can either be nice or continue to be pricks.
