Pregnant after IF

We came out to our friends last night.........

It went really well. A few know what we have been through and started crying, they were so happy for us.

I hadn't really had to "hide" it from anyone until last night really. It was MH's bday and I was so bloated/round yesterday that I couldn't zip my pants (12w2d), so when we were all standing at our house after dinner I was kinda resting my hands on my stomach, trying to camouflage myself. Then when I was sitting I was unknowingly doing they same thing.

When we broke the news two of our friends said that they were wondering because of how I had been holding my belly. My attempt at "hiding" backfired. It's ok though because now they know.

I was SO nervous, my heart was racing. I don't really know why. It's just.....once you tell, you can't untell ya know? Praying everything goes well with the rest of this pregnancy!!

  • Awww you are so cute. They were happy for you so you should be happy too!

    But I know what you mean about once you tell, you can't untell. That has been the main thing running through my head every time I tell someone new. I think its a damn pathetic shame what IF has done to us.

    Hugs!

    I totally know what you mean! DH and I are pretty nervous to start letting people know, but like you I don't think I can really hide it any longer so I think we're just going to stop trying to make it a secret after our appointment on Tuesday.

    I am so happy that you were able to share your news with your friends! I know it can make you nervous, but it must have been exciting too :) Congratulations!!!
