My mother does not want to be a grandmother, how do i tell her im pregnant?

Answer 1

Say hey mom I want you to meet someone. The take her hand and place it on your stomach. I guarantee she'll be OK with it.

Answer 2

Well There Nothing That Can Really Happen It Just Fate, Tell Her If She Doesnt Want To Be A Grandmother Just Stay Out Of Your Life, But If You Want Her To Be Apart Of You And The Baby Life, Try To Apply To Her How Much You Want This Baby & You Want Her To Be Apart The Baby Life And You Need Her By Your Side In The Pregnancy And You Would Love To Have Her Help You. But If She Doesnt Want To Do Anything With You Or The Baby Just Stay Out Of Her Life And Tell Her She Is Going To Miss The Birth Of Her First Grandchild,

Answer 3

I am sure that she doesn't want to be a grandmother because she feels that her "child " is too young to have a child. Unfortunately, the decision has already been made and since you are about to be a mother she can now make her own decision as to whether she wants to be a grandmother in name only or an active influence in her grandchilds life. The only thing you can do is just tell her as this is what the situation is and she can't change it. The only thing she can do is change herself.

Answer 4

She NEVER wants to be? How very sad... why, I wonder. I'd tell her straight out and let the chips fall where they may. Take her aside in a private setting and prepare yourself for any response. The fact is that you are - and she doesn't have to be involved if she so chooses. Her loss. Are you a teen? That would make things a bit different, but in the end you are the expectant mother and you have to do what is best for you. She'll come around when the baby comes along - hopefully. Best of luck to you!

Answer 5

Unless you are expecting your mother to care for your baby constantly & are hoping to rely on her a lot, you should tell her whenever you feel comfortable. I'm sure she will be happy for you. Her becoming a grandmother shouldn't affect her life in a negative way. Congrats. I'm pregnant as well :)

Answer 6

She doesn't really have a choice! Basically, you just tell her. She will more than likely be happy for you and herself. Saying that she doesn't want to be a grandmother is selfish and childish, she can't really expect you to not have a baby because she doesn't want to be a grandmother.

Answer 7

Tell her by making it fun. Get a bib or something that says I love my grandma and wrap it up and give it to her. She probably is scared of getting old and being a grandmother seems like it seals the deal for you. I hope that when you tell her, she is supportive and happy for you. Good luck and congratulations!
Also, she does not have to be called "grandma". She can be called Mimi like we do my mother. Make it a fun name.

Answer 8

Do you live with her? If not, then make up a lot of other things, such as you were out drinking and driving and your car got demolished, you are failing all your college courses and are about to be kicked out, you were robbed, and your house burned down. And after the shock hits her, just let her know that things aren't that bad and that you are only pregnant, so everything is fine.
If you don't, then just casually slip it in with other discussion - talk about several other things and then just slip in that you are pregnant and without hesitation, continue on to a different subject entirely.

Answer 9

I guess it depends on how old you are. If you are a child and your mother will now have to raise another child and feed another mouth, it will be difficult. But if you are old enough to get pregnant ....

Now if you are a mature adult that is out on your own and can afford a family, and can love and raise a child, getting pregnant is all about you, not her. She will get over being a grand mom. It will take her about two seconds and she will be elated to have a grand baby.

Good luck

Answer 10

NO, hell no. Don't listen to these people -- they all believe in things like "OJ was guilty", or "the Earth revolves around the Sun, " or "GFs shouldn't be pimped."

You need an angle baby and here it is.

Tell your mom that your mom adopted you. You heard right. That way, since your mom is only an adoptive mother of you, your child doesn't make her a grandmother, does it?

Listen hunny, come to me with your problems in the future. Ok? Don't rely on the madness of crowds.

Answer 11

Grin. She says that now, but when told a grandchild is on the way I bet she will be ticked pink. Err, unless you are an unwed teenager, in that case she will be scared to death for both you and your child's future
.
Either way, you have to tell her. Not knowing what kind of personality your mom has, I can't help you with the how to tell her.....but do tell her.

Good luck sweetie.
