Your creating a beautiful thing hun. It is nothing to be ashamed off. You seem to have support from daddy and thats what you should focus on. The positive. I would never stress over others opinions on your choices. Sometimes judgement can be very cruel and disheartening. I understand that. I am 22 and having my third child. Am happily married. Everything falls into place. You are much better off without anyone who would judge you in any manner. You come out with it when your ready and comfortable. And i agree 100%with bree08 i have not had fb or any social networking ties in over 6 years. Best thing i have ever done.

People are going to talk either way, theirs alot of friends I haven't talked to in a year because they judge the fact that me and my husband stayed together. Their too immature to understand. I'll be 23 with 2 kids and that's another reason to judge. I deleted my Facebook a long time ago, and called a friend to tell her I was 7 months pregnant and she had no idea. I know some people are super addicted to FB. But I'm so happy that they don't know what's going on in mine or my husbands life.that's one way.. But even if they do judge, don't let it bring you down. You and your new family is all that matters :) congrats

It is always best to wait at least until you're 3 months into your pregnancy to tell people in case of any complications.
As far as people talking, that will ALWAYS happen.
The best thing for you to do is ignore it and be the best mother you can be so that whatever they have to say is not made true by your actions.

Whether you are pregnant or not, people will always talk about you. That's just how some people are. Whether it be at work, or even a random stranger in a grocery store. It's just life. You gotta roll with the punches. As long as you're comfortable with yourself and your life, then you shouldn't let what others say bother you. Also, you're not going to be able to hide your tummy forever, and you have every right to choose who you personally tell. "Those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind."
