kayandy_2

My dad and step-mum have been together for 3 years and married for 1 this sunday and are having another baby they already have a little boy whos 2 and my stepmum has a duaghter whos 4 who my dad adopted they have recently told me they are having another baby and she is due at the end of september... Im very happy for them i really am. im just a little put out they waited so long to tell me and due because of it me and my dad got into an argument is it just me being silly and childish or am i right to be angry he waited so long to tell me??

Personally, I think that if you're old enough to post on here then you should have been told pretty much as soon as they knew themselves. That depends thugh on if you would genuinely be pleased for them.

Even if you were horrible,, I think you should have been told when the general public (workmates etc) were told.

It does seem a bit silly not to of told you sooner, but you're happy about it so does it really matter? and is it worth falling out over?.. maybe they were worried about your reaction to another baby and your reaction can only confirm their fears even though its the timing and not the baby thats made you so angry. Maybe when you've calmed down you'll see its not worth being angry, although you are entitled to be, and wish them both well for the coming birth..

What was his reason for not telling you?

I'm probably stating the obvious here but I don't see how you didn't notice her pregnancy!!! I can understand you would be upset at not being told but it wouldn't exactly be a secret at this stage would it?

How often do you see them? The reason I ask is because if she is due in September then surely you would have seen she was very much pregnant?

I do think they have been a little short sighted in not telling you sooner, and will ask the same question as S_G - what were their reasons?

I wondered how you weren't aware as she must be showing by now. That said it's surprising it wasn't mentioned before now.

I can understand why you are upset. Do you not see them often to not have noticed? Also wondering what their reasons for not telling you are. Hope you manage to patch things up with your Dad and enjoy having a new baby brother/sister. Time is precious, you don't know what tomorrow brings. xxx

Like other posters have said I'm guessing you don't see them that often, otherwise you'd have noticed your step mum is pregnant!

Yes, I can see why you'd be a bit put out. Did other people know.. was it just you they kept the news from?

Maybe they had a few problems during the pregnancy and decided not to shout it from the rooftops?

Life is far too short, let it go, ring your dad, it really is not worth falling out over.

Send them some flowers or something.

You are about to have a new brother/sister, although half, but they will be just as precious.#
I'm guessing youre pretty young...........
