Found out I was pregnant at the beginning of October. My DH decided to wait to tell my SS10 to make sure all was well (i previously miscarried a few months before). Now he wants to wait until "after christmas" so we have a pleasant christmas and not a disaster like last year. He thinks the ex will get mad but he also thinks that SS will be mad too. It hurts my feelings that he thinks that SS will be mad. I put my foot down and said we will tell him christmas day, but I think my DH is nervous. Why would SS be mad about the baby and is there a certain way to tell him?

Dh and I were invited by friends to an event to support their child. This friend is related to DH's ex. EX originally told friend she was going to go then backed out because she didn't want to make me "feel uncomfortable." I have the DH why should I feel uncomfortable.

So amongst many bizarre moments with the SS we pick him up from BM's house friday and he is showing off these 2 rings. One looked like something out of a gumball machine but the other looked very vintage (turquoise stone with a cluster of diamonds). He claimed his mom gave them to him. I did state seems kinda odd for a 10 year old boy to have rings. To somewhat sidetrack for a moment for another odd behavior the next day prior to the finale...while my DH was working on his car SS stayed with DH's mother.

So last year my SS's birthday was terrible, the BM wouldn't look at me and since it was my now DH's turn to host the bday party she invited practically his entire class and wouldn't help my now DH with getting all the kids set up for bowling. So seeing his frustration I decided to step in to help. Well parents saw me helping and assumed I was the BM. One parent even came up to me to ask me a question and I was nice enough to say "well this is his mom you should talk to her" what does she do when i leave to pick up the pizzas?
