So disappointed

[lilprince]

To say the very least! My DH and I have only told VERY CLOSE friends and family but of course my two older daughters know and they told their dad (my ex). I asked my ex not to say anything but apparantly he has told EVERYONE!!!!! Even friends from other states know! Im sooooo..... mad, sad, pissed.... you name it!!!! This wasnt his news to tell!!!!! Ughhh!!! Sorry, I just really needed to vent!

 

[Jess&Jay]

He must of been doing it to be spiteful. Aw hun, I hope you feel better about all this. xo

 

[HippieJess]

Didn't want to read & run. I'm sorry he did that to you. You have every right to be angry.

 

[Etoille]

A good indication that he is EX material. Sorry to hear that he ruined the surprise. *Hug*

 

[kiwimama]

Can't believe he has told all your relatives/ friends. It was not his place AT ALL to go around telling people. I'm sorry he did that to you. If you decide to find out the sex and name the baby before the birth, I'd be keeping that to yourself so you can be the ones to announce it.

 

[NicoleB]

Sorry honey he was so mean and spiteful to do that.

 

[lilprince]

Thanks everyone! I wasnt sure if it was just pregnancy hormones and I was mad because of that or if that was truely out of line?? Ughhh.... Life goes on I guess but Ill be damned if my daughters tell him anything else. I dont know how to keep them from saying anything though? They are sooo excited!!!

He was most definitely out of line. That's not for him to tell.

And I would just be honest with your daughters and ask them not to mention it to their father. That's all you really can do.

But it's great that they're excited!

Nasty man!

 

[cosmotbear]

ooh that's very spiteful. What a childish little game to play, I'm guessing he knew it would upset you. Make your big news anyway, maybe with a scan pic and just point out that you're sorry they found out before you were ready to announce it. They'll probably guess he was being an idiot. Anyway, ignore him, you'll be the one getting all the attention! xxx

 

[lousielou]

Aw hun We're not telling my stepsons for a while, as I know that not only is their mother (my OH's ex) going to go bonkers, but I don't want her knowing before all my family and friends do. I'm so sorry your ex has such a big mouth xx

 

[Chellepot]

Its a sad fact that after seperation sometimes one or both ex partners can't stop interfering in the others life and sounds like your ex is one of these. Don't give him the satisfaction. Personally I would make a joke of it, but one that will hammer the point home. When you next see him ask him how much you owe him. When he asks what for say you don't remember ordering a rent-a-mouth to spread your pregnancy news but as hes done it how much does he want to get paid! And just to put the boot it at the end say in a matter of fact way, by the way - you know its not yours don't you? If you scream and shout at him then you are probably playing into his hands where as mocking him will just make him feel like a muppet. I'm sorry he stole your thunder though - congrats on your bfp xxx

 

[crazy mummy]

Oh hun its not fair is it? My mum found out before I was ready to tell anyone and she told everyone in the family and everyone else aswell its so annoying xx

 

[Merry]

We haven't told any one yet, apart from my boss as I had too due to hazardous stuff at work. If we tell my stepson, he will tell his mum, who will tell DH patents, who will tell the world. Also my mother would tell everyone, so keeping it quite.

Sorry you ex is an idiot! At least he is your ex!!

OMG!!! That is hilarious!!!!!! If I didnt already chew him out I would have done that! That is priceless!!!!!!

 

[bubba no.1]

Oh no How mean is that! It is your news to tell people as and when you are ready.

 

[ayako]

I would be furious.

What a mean person >=[

 

[sophsoph23]

This happened to me, my bf told his close family and his sister (who swore she wouldnt say a word to anyone) but she went and told her friend (the one person we especially didnt want to know), and she told nearly everyone we know.
I was so angry, so dont worry, its not just the preg hormones lol!!
xx

 

[lilprince]

Why do so many feel its ok to spread news that's not theirs? Sorry for anyone that has happened to! It is infuriating!!

 

[mislaww]

What a small man. I'm glad you're not with him anymore! Sorry you had to go through that. But don't let that ruin it for you!
