Why are people so mean?

Every time I've started talking to someone and I end up telling them I'm pregnant they stop talking to me...friends, strangers etc! What the hell? Has pregnancy turned into a contagious disease or something? Why are people acting like this? It's not like I'm 12 and pregnant. I am unwed and going to be a single mom, but really? This really makes me feel fantastic about my pregnancy. Even my stepmom was talking down on me and being pregnant until I snapped on her about it. Im so sick of it!! Sorry, more of a rant than anything...

Honestly it doesn't matter what people try to say, if you're happy that's all that matters. They have no reason to try to ruin your good feelings about being pregnant, let em talk because obviously they're not very happy people to have to bring you down. I hope you feel better :-)

I'm engaged and people still tell me it's wrong for me to be unwed and pregnant. I tell them it doesn't matter because not having a piece of paper tying me to someone else isn't going to stop this baby from coming, so they can either be happy or shut up.
