Is my stepson jealous because I'm pregnant or not?

[BButterfly]

Yesterday while we were celebrating Christmas with our cousins and family, I surprised them about my pregnancy including my husband. They all were so happy and my husband couldn't believe it. My stepson was very quiet and didn't give any reaction and after a while he went up to his room. His father and I talked to him about it and he didn't give us any reaction which is weird. If he is what can i do to make him feel better?
P. s he is 13 yo.

There is nothing you can do..
He is in teenage..
His brain is having multiple thoughts..
He might be thinking..
He will loose his importance in family..

Best thing you can tell him is.
The kid that will be born will look up to him.. And he will be a big brother!..
And this only increases his value as part of this family

[SSuar19]

jealous reactions from children of that age in my opinion are reasonable, because they feel your/your husband attention will be reduced to him. keep showing love to him.

[Daphne_Naiad]

Aww divorce is rough.

You have to understand, he might feel like you are trying to push out his mother and dominate his father's attention with the new child, even though this might be the furthest thing from your intention.

Be kind and understanding to him during this time. It's difficult for him; he might feel in-between families

[Poppykate]

Just remind him that he will play an important part in the family... ‘big brother’.

[WalterRadio]

He probably sees that as a wedge between him and his dad or as a stake in his mother's heart. It is probably the kind of thing that would only affect him between the ages of 12 and 15; if he were older or younger, probably not so much.

Don't provoke him by talking about it around him for now. Let him pout for a while. Then your husband should have a talk with him and let him know that is his brother or sister you are having, that he needs to set a good example that he/she can look up to and that there is plenty of love in the family to go around.

13yr old probably has some reservations against you. (Most kids have a belief their parents will get back together) a pregnancy does kind of cement the fact that you are a permanent fixture in his life.

Doesn't mean he doesn't like you, this all depends on his relationship between his parents but if you continue to involve him your life, he'll get over this little moment.

[rutgerhauer]

It's a tricky age, 13. Part of him will be feeling threatened by having another sibbling coming into the world, especially if its your first with his father. Give him space and time. He'll come round eventually, but it could be made worse if you try to force his hand to like the idea...(sorry).

[Kaneki05]

Well if he is 13 and you have only just became his stepmum within this year or so.
Not gonna lie he might have a crush on you or something.

I mean most teens if they get an attractive stepmum they tend to have a crush on them and get jellous.
Esspacilly if there stepmum is quite young like 24.

That or maybe he just don't want a brother.

Tbh who knows there is many reasons.

[afterlonglonglong]

I don't think he is jealous but I guess feared because he might be think he would left alone after your baby

[BButterfly]

This is what I'm afraid of

[afterlonglonglong]

There is only one solution to this...

[Anon-ymous1]

@BButterfly Why are you asking a question at all if you don't want answers.

[afterlonglonglong]

@Anon-ymous1 it doesn't matter, thats why i never spend extra time in writing complete opinion

if the OP wanna know it then he/she can spend little extra time asking about it

[BButterfly]

@Anon-ymous1 I didn't ask for rude opinions and if you think pregnancy is GROSS keep it to yourself. You don't need to say this to (a pregnant woman in her question).

[afterlonglonglong]

I didn't know the story between OP and Anony...

but yeah if OP, i was rude then i apologize

[BButterfly]

He was very rude in his opinion that's why i removed it.

[afterlonglonglong]

OP you can just block him, simple as that

[BButterfly]

Done.

[afterlonglonglong]

cool :)

[jrmitchell2629]

Im not sure i would know if i was that 13 yr old boy

[bhavy24]

Tell him you and ur husband will love him the way like before and there won't be difference from your side towards him and his step sibling

[bravesfan44]

I think he’ll be fine. You surprised them he’s probably still processing everything

[SwoleCook]

He’s probably jealous his dad is banging that

[BButterfly]

Seriously?

[SwoleCook]

I’d be jealous if he was banging you. Is it tight?

[Anon-ymous1]

@SwoleCook Uh, no dude. Gross.

[BButterfly]

Yeah not cool!

[Anonymous]

Your stepson probably fantasizes about boning you. He doesn't like the idea of his half brother growing inside your belly, where he wants to bust a nut. You should give him a handjob just to get it out of his system.
