Expecting my first and looking for advice from other mothers of interracial children?

i'm 26 1/2 weeks pregnant, and i'm curious if you could share your experiences with me. the joys and struggles of raising interracial children. i'm white, and my boyfriend is black, so my daughter will be beautiful, but need some supportive advice.Expecting my first and looking for advice from other mothers of interracial children?
Hi I am Native American and my Hubby is white. We have been married over 12 years and have two kids and one on the way. Honestly, we are a typical family. Just because we have different ethnicity's means nothing, our kids enjoy, know the history and respect both of their ethnic heritages. But they are human first, and we have always said that to them.





I honestly do not know if there are any struggles aside from the normal ones, one has as a mom. I do not live in a small bigoted town or a city that is quite racist. I have never once had anyone say anything to me; other than how beautiful my children are.





As far as advice, people will always have issues, if it isn't race it will be something else..do not let them dictate your life or how you raise your child. It's good that she is proud of both her ethnic backgrounds.





Honestly, there are so many bi-racial children these days, I do not know too many people who have issues that would overtly affect them. Everywhere I go I see bi-racial children, however, I will say that all of my close friends are in an interracial relationship. Only because there are difficulties culturally in interracial relationships.....but as far as raising our kids my hubby and I have never had any major issues, we agree about almost everything (he thinks I am too soft on them at times; which is true), but again after being around couples who are of the same ethnic (both black, both white, etc.) group, I have not seen a difference in our childrens lives vs. theirs.Expecting my first and looking for advice from other mothers of interracial children?
im 22weeks pregnant, and again im white hubby is from the caribbean. there are actually loads of biracial kids where we live, and im sad to say a lot of the women got pregnant just because they wanted black babies. i know quite a few of them. they were shocked to find out i was happily married and never planned what colour my baby would be!!!!!


so where i am, i will get a lot of stares 'not another biracial baby'





we both have very supportive families, except for my mother in law, who wasnt happy that im white and wants no part in our lives or our baby EVER :( heart breaking for my husband and i dont know what to do.





what is great tho, is that i am very english and my hubby LOVES being vincentian so hopefully our son will be strong willed and be open to other cultures :)








good luck with the rest of your pregnancy x
hey!! Im just about where you are :)





Im biracial. My mother is white and father black. I don't know about the struggles and joys. I suppose they are very similar to others. I just have one piece of advice for you - Make sure your child knows all about her heritage - african american side and the white side. That will be important to her!





Im having an interracial child myself because of my make up! Im biracial and his daddy is black. Im wondering myself how that will be!! :)





Good luck!
im 31 weeks and my baby will be irish from me and hungarian, italian, puerto rican and black from the dad. im curious to see what your answers will be as well. this is my second and my first is all white so im also kind of scared at how people will look upon them as siblings. it scares me a little bit. i know people will pass judgment on them but i wish they wouldn't.
Hey my story is very similar to yours. I'm 25 1/2 weeks pregnant. Im white and my baby's father is black. He's not around. I'm also having a girl. I'd love to read your other responses.
