Question

Should I be scared to tell family about baby #4?!

My husband and I recently found out we are expecting baby #4! This was a planned pregnancy, we have always dreamed about having a larger family. I just cant help but feel ashamed and embaressed for adding another child. I am so afraid to tell my family. Has anyone else ever felt this way? I sure hope this is just hormones talking and this passes quickly.

Oh yes! I was so scared to think how my family will react on baby no. 4, and it took me a while to shake that feeling away. There will always be someone who thinks you're insane, but it's what you and your husband think that counts. You have no reason to feel ashamed, only proud.
I told our moms and dads as soon as doctor confirmed everything is ok, and the rest of the family found out eventually. They were confused, some people even asked me have I concidered some kind of birth control but it all turned out great.
Head up, smile on your face and congrads on your baby.
