Its very hard. I just told my mom and her and my babys father think I should have an abortion. I'm only 5 weeks and the drs don't think I'll carry long. I say tell them. My sister has a little one and just had twins. Still very support family

Wow! 4 kids under four! Are you and your husband planning to have more? I wish I had the income to support a big family and I would have lots of kids! Me and my husband both have good jobs, insuancr, own our home etc. but feel we can only afford to raise 1, put it in good schools, send to college etc. We want this baby to have a better life then we did growing up!

May your home be filled with love and many blessings! I think it is so cool you can/get to have soo many kids!

Your family has no place judging your choices! So long as you can financially afford to raise your kids without bugging them for money or help, it is none of thier business!

Do you live with them? Is that why you are scared?

Tell them sooner than later even if it's tough. It shows you being responsible. I had to go through it, but eventually they get that it's your life not there's. They'll always love you, anger and disappointment only show it more.

I don't have several children but I had to tell my family I was pregnant at 14. It was very hard. I got got a lot of judgment and eventually everyome comes to accept things. I have some family that won't speak to me and some that are very supportive. It'll eventually come out. People will have to deal
