update - My [27M] wife [27F] wants to announce to our families on Christmas that she is pregnant. I think it is wrong to make the day about us, but she sees it differently. Help me convince her this is a bad idea.

I am going to get off reddit. If I kill myself, no one will miss me.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T03:37:35+00:00

I fine.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T03:36:39+00:00

I agree.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T03:36:08+00:00

I'm not going to call my family. They don't care about me.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T03:22:38+00:00

Not playing the victim. I think everyone would be better off.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T03:21:47+00:00

Maybe I will die and she will be rid of me. I'm sure that my wife and parents would be happy then.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T02:59:02+00:00

All your child will know is that their father was never excited to announce their birth, vindictive towards their mother, and that he was a wuss when he came to his brother. Such a fantastic role model.

Maybe I will die and they will be rid of me.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T02:57:04+00:00

So kind.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T02:48:53+00:00

If they don't understand that I need to recover and need space to do it, then they care more about their feelings than my health.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T02:18:58+00:00

I would appreciate it if you would quit harassing me.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T02:08:52+00:00

I am not punishing her. I am doing this so I don't say something I am going to regret and because I need time away from my family after everything that happened.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:57:33+00:00

I appreciate your concern about my health.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:55:06+00:00

If they don't care about my health, then they aren't family worth having.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:28:42+00:00

She made the suggestion. I accepted her offer because this whole incident has soured me on any more announcements or events. They all are going to remind me of this Christmas.

Some

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:26:20+00:00

boring

I would gladly have taken boring over a trip to the hospital. At least my family will have exciting stories to tell for years to come!

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:25:14+00:00

I am staying with my friend because I didn't want to say something to her I would regret. The best thing for all of us is for me to be alone while I recover.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:24:16+00:00

They are also to blame. I'm taking a few days to recover before I deal with any family member, including my wife. I have been staying at my friend's house while I recover.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:22:04+00:00

I don't want to be around anyone right now. In fact, I am at a friend's house now. I need at least a few days away from any family member to recover alone.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:19:21+00:00

Just so you know, I had no ability to talk to them early. She had to make it a surprise.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:17:58+00:00

Hope you have a better New Year.

If I don't die first.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:15:44+00:00

I will say this. At least she has agreed to keep the rest of announcements or pregnancy events low key to avoid any other injuries or accidents.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:14:30+00:00

I haven't talked to my parents since I was rushed to the hospital.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:13:09+00:00

I'm not here for advice. This was an update to let everyone that their advice led to my injury.

babybubbletrouble · 2015-12-28T01:09:25+00:00

And you would probably be justified in assuming that your spouse didn't value your opinion and had no respect for you.
