Should I tell my boss?

I don't share a ton of personal info. with her, but she's a grandma herself, and she is an understanding, warm person. I've had to leave here and there many time over the past six months due to my losses, so I feel like I should give some sort of explanation. On Monday, I'll be 6 weeks...do you think I should, or just continue to ask to leave? I don't want her thinking I'm going on interviews or anything.

I think you should tell her!  If she's that understanding, she'll be glad to know what's going on I'm sure. GL!

I told my boss because I am currently going to the doctor twice a week so I figured an explanation was probably warranted.  I think you should tell her, especially if you know she's an understanding person.

I'm not telling my boss until I'm comfortable telling everyone. We're not close, personally.

I am 7 weeks and I told my supervisor as soon as I found out right around 5 weeks or so. He is NOT an understanding person and would write me up if I didn't tell him...trust me, he was the last person that I wanted to share my joy with. But Its good that he knows now because I have been going to the doctor a lot due to Low Vitamin D and I have a "full blown" UTI that I knew nothing about. They are also monitoring me because with my first pregnancy, I had preclempsia (not sure if I spelled that right). Tell when your comfortable and ready, especially if you arent close. Good luck on your bundles ladies!!

My boss knew about my ectopic in December. He overheard me on the phone with my doctor when I had a spotting incident and was told to go straight in. I knew he heard, so I just told him while I was leaving. We haven't spoken much about it since.

I told my boss today because I felt obligated to let him know he can't count on my for any projects in the new year. I didn't want him to take on more clients not knowing that I will definitely be out on leave or not coming back. It was a huge weight off my shoulders and I feel a lot better being so sick and not trying to hide it.
