I think your son's reaction may be different because he might have had a mental picture of you and your dh having sex....he is at that age.

I'm 42 and 31 weeks pregnant now with a 19 year old in college.  He is supper excited about being a big brother and can't wait to see if the baby looks like him.  Tell her soon.  Things will 
work out.

She will definitely be surprised but just make sure that she knows she is still a big importsnt part of your heart and that will never change. Im 23 years old and 36 weeks pregnsnt but got big news like that from my mom at age 14.. and honestly it wasnt so bad.. I was shocked but also I saw how happy and glowy she was and as selfish as daughters can be at times, we will support you when you need us most and least expect it! Good luck to you and in your pregnancy!

I am 38 and I have a 14 year old son and 11 year old daughter, I am 7 weeks pregnant and still in shock.  We told our kids on Christmas Eve, our daughter is excited but our son not so much. I think he is worried if the baby is a boy it will replace him.

Thanks.. She is leaving tomorrow to spend the rest of her break in Florida.   I will tell her when she returns. I was thinking once I make my first Dr visit.. I will take it from there.   I will keep you posted.   Thanks..

I am 38 and 10 weeks pregnant today. This is my second, my first is 19 years old will almost be 20 when baby arrives. There is no easy way to tell your daughter. I did not think my daughter was going to take it well at all but turns out she is super excited to finally become a big sister. She is even planning to take 2 weeks of vacation from work when baby comes so she can help me out around the house.

Bit of a shock isn't it? I'm 40 with a 12 year old son and 6 weeks pregnant. I haven't told him yet as always just been two of us. I guess being totally straight is the only way to go about it.
