Support system

I am 37 yo and first baby ko to. Currently in my 24 weeks. Interesado ako sa support system specially family. Tangap ba sainyo na nabuntis kayo kahit hindi married? Im still with my bf but I decided not to get married kase naka petition ako. But my parents were against the pregnancy despite my age and they are saying negative things about me. Kayo po ba mga mommies? Or soon to be? How is your support system thoughout pregnancy journey?

I'm 37 years old too and currently 14 weeks pregnant. This is my 2nd pregnancy actually. I had my first last year but it wasn't successful. Prior to that, I haven't been with a man. I have been into same sex relationship since college days that my whole family never thought of me getting pregnant. My former partner has always been part of the family. Na tanggap na nilang ganon ako for many years. So imagine their disapproval when they first learned about it. In addition to that, the baby's daddy (who is now my husband) is 12 years younger than me. One of the reasons why they possibly thought it was just a one time mistake and a result of my impulsiveness. I have never been in good terms with my aunts and uncles since then. Like the hell I care. I'm good with that as long as my siblings and I are okay. (wala na kasi kming parents so kmi-kami na Lang). I am old enough nmn na to make decisions on my own. Their disapproval shouldn't be hindering my decisions. Saka, I have been living on my own naman din.
