Telling Siblings?

*kendrick*

Now that we've seen the LO's h/b, we are ready to tell our parents about this PG. We've already done the whole "go through a loss without telling" and wouldn't want to do that again. We told our parents about the loss 6 mo after the fact, when we started IF treatments, and they were amazingly supportive.

However, our siblings have no idea what we've been going through. DH wants to share the PG news with them when we tell the parents. I can't decide what to do. There are 5 sisters between the two of us and one on each side has developmental disabilities that make them not great at being discreet with secrets.

We will be spending lots of time with the families this weekend, so lots of time to struggle through hiding my m/s if we don't tell. What to do? What to do?

I wouldn't tell anyone you don't trust to keep the secret, especially since you've already experienced a loss.  I can't imagine how hard it would be to have to tell distant relatives/friends of the family about a miscarriage b/c someone was excited and shared my news against my will.  We're probably waiting until the end of the 1st tri to tell anyone, parents included, because we don't trust our parents to keep our secret.
