How to deal with your disapproving parents?
Hello,
I am 5 weeks pregnant, my partner and I decided not to tell our parents that we are pregnant as last time the judgement and opinions we received from both sides hurt us deep and we were even encouraged to not go through with our last pregnancy, unfortunately we had a MC anyway. But now that we are pregnant again a year later I just don't know how to even bring it up with them, we were going to wait 12 weeks to tell them to avoid any judgement or criticism if we didn't even make it to the second trimester but now the anxiety of what is ahead is piling up. Does anyone have any tips or Similar experiences That they can share?
