daughter won't acknowlege I'm pregnant?

I'm 39 and pregnant with my 2nd child my daughter is 16 and won't acknowledge I'm pregnant. My husband and I wanted to talk to her about it but she kept saying she was busy. Finally had a chat with her alone showed her the ultrasound and she just got up and walked out of the room. I'm now 25 weeks and showing but she doesn't seem to care or even notice. Should I try to talk more or just leave her be? Its clear she's not happy but is there anything I can do I don't want to upset her.

She probably feels embarrassed. I know its stupi but that's how most teens are. He probably thinks you're too old to be pregnant...my daughter knows a girl who's mom just had a baby and all she does is spend time with her bf. I got lucky with my daughter she's 18 and was happier than me about my pregnancy. Try to talk to her when she's not expecting let's say you're preparing dinner and she's around and you just start saying something or ask her opinion. Try to include her. Sometimes when i want to talk to my daughter about a subject i know she doesn't want to talk about i pretend i heard a story about "this girl" and i give my opinion about the situation. Without telling her the girl is her. Lol her face is always priceless thinking "oh i did the same thing". Also try to go to the mall to get something and stop at a baby store too. This would be my approach hopeffuly it helps.
