I am very happy with my daughter and with how she is raising her daughter and brag about it to everybody. Now she is having another baby with a planned c-section and I have told everybody after she specifically told me not to. Am I wrong for doing this? I am just happy. She is now very hurt because she wanted to surprise everybody.

Why would you tell people if she specifically told you not to? You even knew telling would be wrong but you did it anyway! It's great that you're proud of your daughter and everything but spilling something out like that on purpose is horrible. Sorry, but what you did was wrong and you should immediately apologize to your daughter for spilling such a sacred secret.
Oh, and like I said above, it's great you're proud of your daughter, but keep the bragging to a minimum. People get sick of hearing how great "so-and-so" and her kids are doing. No one wants to constantly plaster on a fake smile when hearing every detail. Even if people ask how she's doing, it doesn't give you the right to tell them her life story about all the accomplishments she's made.

Moms are supposed to be there and listen to their children after they are grown up and out on their own. You definately crossed the border line. Next time she has another child, just be happy and be her support. After all, it is not easy having a child with the way society is. You need to respect her parenting wishes.

yes blabbermouth you were wrong. but understandably so. My children are my life and they are the thing I love to talk about.
But you can not over step them and tell people things or next time you will not be in the loop.
how would you like it to find out every one else new something and you were the one to be "surprised"

Yes, you're wrong. Apologise.
Of course, she couldn't keep it a secret and told you ....
If she hadn't wanted anyone to know, she shouldn't have told anybody herself.
I hope you get over it. Good luck with your new grandchild.

You took her moment away from her. She specifically asked you not to say anything. You did anyway. Of course, you are wrong.

No you aren't a big mouth. You are just SELFISH and only concerned about YOUR feelings. How could you hurt your daughter like that. Some MOM you are.

Yes you are, especially since she told you specifically not to.

You violated her trust in you. I doubt she'll trust you with any more secrets. You do need to apologize, but I doubt if that will fix it.
