telling with 2nd pregnancy

With ds I could barely contain my excitement. Yet with this one we have no plans to tell. I will be 7 weeks on wed and have an u/s. I think it will be hard to keep it in onThanksgiving. My sil lost her babies after a brief stay in the nicu and her due date is approaching so I know we want to allow that to pass before telling them. Then we don't feel right telling one family and not the other. For some reason it doesn't seem as hard to keep in. Then I worry that maybe my mind is telling me not to tell people because something is wrong! I need wed to come really fast! May eb we will tell at 8 or 9 weeks? Last time we told family at 5 weeks

Re: telling with 2nd pregnancy

  • We told earliest with our first pregnancy also but latest with our second, 3rd pregnancy was somewhere in the middle.

  • With my 1st we told as soon as the pee hit the stick.  Seriously, we told EVERYone that same day.  Then I had a "threatened miscarriage" episode of unexplained spotting twice.  So, with my 2nd we waited until after the first u/s.  It was hard to keep it a secret but I spotted again with that pregnancy and was afraid I might be miscarrying.  Once we saw the heartbeat and the Dr. found the cause of the spotting we were all set to share the good news!
