[quote=Anonymous]DH and I have been married for 3 years, together for 10. In-laws have always been standoffish with me. I think they still hold out hope he will end up with his college girlfriend. :P

We're pregnant and shared the news at the safe point in person. They literally sat there not reacting. When I told my dad and family, I was worried the police would be called from all the shrieking and hugs! I didn't expect them to do flips around the living room but we thought they'd be a little excited? I don't know why this is bothering me so much. DH is crushed. He has a younger sister that lives out of state that was excited to hear the news. This wasn't an accident or a surprise either. We have been TTC for months now.

It doesn't matter in the long run but did you have anyone have no reaction to your announcement? Any reason you thought why? I think I'm just bummed because I don't have a mother (passed away when I was little) and I thought MIL would have advice or tips or something. They both just looked at each other and said dinner would be in 15 mins...? We ate in silence basically and then headed home. [/quote]
