Thanks gals! cleckner, I'm not married to my OH either, which is a whole other issue. My family won't ever be 100% happy unless we are married. They had issues when I got pregnant with my 1st (at first) because they wanted us to get married. Even though they know we tried for almost two years to get pregnant! I guess they were just hoping a baby would change things? My grandmother will especially be unhappy about having #2 without marriage. She mentions marriage every time I see her. It gets old. We are engaged and plan to get married once we finish getting our house built so we can have a grand reception at our new home.
My family was super excited our first was a boy since there aren't many boys in either family. My son is the first boy in my OHs family in 30 years!
It's nice to know I'm not the only person who feels this way about family not being as excited having a 2nd. At least it's sort of normal.
