The purpose of this paper is to discuss how a couple that got married after a pregnancy gives meaning to their marriage and interprets it. After analyzing their discourese, I realized that the relation between the pregnancy(and the raising of child) and the marriage is never explicitly mentioned. This is a strategy that allows the couple to talk about their marriage without rhetoric hides the contradictions inherent to their marriage and enables them to give it the same meanings as a ‘love-marriage’. Then it becomes acceptable.
