The concept of a large family is hard for most people . It's not normal these days... And society loves enforcing what they see as normal . As for the people I feel will stop talking to me? They all have profound emotional reasons that I completely understand. One good friend that can't have children . I tried to offer her the last one but couldn't actually go through with it... ( no judging plz , it wasn't that I didn't want him , I just REALLY wanted to help her, even if it would hurt in the process) . My sisters children were lost to her in divorce drama , so envy would cloud her ability to be happy for me. And my mother in law feels I was already outnumbered at three and wanted to see me get my tubes tied at the last one ( actually hers is just frustrating , I tend to think she needs to butt out and let us live) but she had a hard way to go taking care of the three she had in a single parent environment so that's where her thinking comes from

stop talking to you because you chose to get pregnant? that's your decision .if they can't accept it o well!!
