[quote=Anonymous]That sucks, OP. I had a similar experience when I told my dad I was pregnant. He reacted with complete and utter shock and even said, "I guess I knew this would be coming eventually and I've been trying to prepare myself for it, but...wow." No excitement or joy whatsoever. I'm 32 and been married for 1.5 years so it's not like this should be unexpected news. His wife (my stepmom) just emailed me today to say congratulations -- six weeks after I told my dad the news. I hadn't heard a word of acknowledgment from her until today. Some people are just weird about good news. I'm sorry that your in-laws reacted so terribly and that your husband is disappointed by their reaction. I hope as your pregnancy progresses that they get more excited. I'm sure they'll be fully on board by the time your son or daughter arrives -- it's hard to not get excited at the arrival of an actual little human being. Also, congratulations![/quote]
