I'm Currently Feeling: | Told The Family ...about Bump.
Dad was estatic, as were my siblings so that was a huge relief and made me very happy. Dad asked lots of questions too and seemed genuinely interested.
Then rang my Mum who basically said 'Oh, right ok. Well whatever makes you happy' then said she had to go as she had arrived at a pub.
Feel a bit deflated now, but glad it's over. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I doubt my Mum will care tbh. She's not the nicest person. Still, at least I did the right thing and told her. Ball is in her court now. |

I'm glad it was relatively smooth and at least your mum didn't say anything directly nasty. Good on ya, girl - that is one big thing on the list that you can now cross off! |

I'm Currently Feeling: |  Sorry to hear your mom acted like that. But it's good that you told them, and your dad sounds super-excited  |
