In my case i think my dad just thinks i am old enough to look after myself so he doesn't give a damn!!! Hope this is not the same for you hun!! They might come around when u have LO if not then they don't know wot they r missing!!!

oh hun i'm so sorry to hear that. my dad was the same when i told him. i don't have a mam either as she died 11 years ago. so when i told my dad i guess i knew how he would react. he just said "oh, was it planned?" i was like eh yeah of course it was!! im 27!! that was all he said. he lives a half an hour away from me and i haven't heard from him since then. its nothing unusual cos i could go a couple of months without being in contact with him. its always been the same. i really miss having a mam around. my OH's mam is great though and she was all excited when we told her so at least i have her. i think its just dads!! i hope your ok hun

I think some men just go numb at the mention of anything womanly. Though, judging by what you've said, this seems like the expected response from your Dad. His loss hun, not yours Like everyone else has said, those people around you who care are the ones to turn to. Try not to dwell to much on your Dad for the moment. He'll probably come round when it's more real.... when you show him the scan pics, and he can see your bump. Hope you're doing ok

Feeling much better now!! My sister just asked wot did i expect!! Over it!! He has probably only seen my daughter about 5 times, and that is most definately his loss as she is wonderful!!!

Aww hun I am glad you are feeling better. My parent were the same. I have 2 already and I think I am big enough now LOL.
All parents just don't want there little girl growing up I think.

Awwww hun Try not to worry. Parents have a funny way of reacting to things. I told my dad nearly a fortnight ago and he STILL hasn't said a word about it. I wouldn't mind but I've seen him at least 5-6 times since!

Yes, in a way I find it quite upsetting but my thoughts are if that's how they want to deal with it then let them get on with it. The only one making an issue out of it is them and they'll get over it eventually. Aslong as we're happy then nothing else matters

congrats on your little one... i hope your dad comes round to the idea soon

sorry to hear about your dad but sounds like you have lots of other support around you. I'm dreading telling my parents and I'm 35!!
