You are engaged and you aren't even divorced yet? If you are old enough to get married twice and have a 3 year old daughter what advice do you need? You are grown up and get to make all your own mistakes now.

Be as happy as you can be nad plan to tell him a day or two after coming home from deployment. I assume it was a short deployment if you are only 6 weeks preg. but at any rate still give it a day or 2. So what if your family would be mad at you...you are 26 for cryin out loud and you already have a kid. I was already married to my second husband by 26 (24 to be precise)and had my second child at 27. Your family will eventually come around.

your a grown woman! If your family is going to be mad ...give them the news of a new family memember soo to arrive and give them time alone to deal...but in the meantime finalize your divorce and take care of you and yours they will eventually come around. But the bottom line is your grown 26 and on your own engaged with child and a 3 yr old ...your life cant and wont stop because they disagree with your choices...they will get over it and it will be soon in the past once they see or hear how healthy you are and the baby is ect so it and you will be fine

Wait until your fiance comes back for sure so you have his support. Maybe wait until you about 3 months pregnant before telling your family because you won't be showing yet but you'll definitely know for sure and you'll have time for the divorce to be final. Good luck. Maybe try to find some family members who will be happy for you and tell them first then slowly get around to the whole family and have the other members tell the family who will be mad for you.

You're 26 years old not 16, they all know that you are engaged and just waiting for your divorce to be final. Tell them that you are pregnant soon before they are asking "where did this baby come from?". Plus you can't hide the fact that you are pregnant too much longer. Your mother will know just by looking at you that you are.

Do you still seek approval of your family at the age of 26? Maybe some good counselling will help you to overcome this one. I think when you left home to get married for the first time, you made that decision to be on your own. Tell them? Wear a big shirt that says BABY...who cares if they get angry with you? Are they supporting you? Maybe it's a money thing. Girl, you have made your decisions, be happy in your new life! Good Luck...

why are your family going to be mad at you...its 'your' life and what u do with it, is your business!...As for your fiance why would u be scared of telling him your pregnant, if he loves you then he'll be pleased! Just wait until you're certain you are pregnant then just tell.

If I were you, I definitely wouldn't tell my family until I knew for sure! Once you do know, and if you are, then you HAVE to tell them. It would be worse if they found out from someone other than you!
