1st Trimester

pregnancy announcement question

Hello all. Next week I have my 12/13 week ultrasound and we are planning on telling our families afterwards. I suffered a miscarriage back in September so this pregnancy is completely different then my first successful pregnancy. I am having a difficult time trying to explain to my husband that I would just rather him tell his family and Ill tell my family and leave it at that. He said I am being super weird about it and that I should be happy,  excited and make a big deal about it. When Im still very nervous, anxious and honestly I haven’t been feeling the best and I don’t feel like answering questions from his family right now. Has anyone else felt this way? Am I being weird about it?

  • I think you should tell your family/ies the way you feel most comfortable. If you don't want to make it a huge reveal, I think that should be your call since you're doing the brunt of the work here. This is not weird at all!

  • You also have the right to tell only the people you want to tell. If you want support from your close family or friends but not the public at large then tell those people and let them know it’s not for public consumption. Obviously you’ll have to pick and choose who will actually follow those instructions. You may find that others have had a similar experience. If you head over to your BMB there are usually PAL threads for others in your situation.
