It's getting hard...

Ok I'm getting close, tomorrow i'll finally be in the double digits!! However, it is getting SO hard not to tell anyone anymore.

We kept it a secret till 12wks with DD and we were living with my parents, but this time it's like all I want to do is tell!!

I was out shopping with my mom yesterday and i saw a shirt for DD that said 'Big Sister In Training' I SO badly wanted to hold it up and tell her when needed to get that for DD, but resisted my urge.

I was at my bff's house last week and wanted to tell then, but luckily DH didn't text me back saying it was ok until after I left her house.( we had planned to tell everyone together and I felt bad to change it up on him)

I suddenly had this huge urge to go on fb and spill, but there's absolutely NO WAY in hell I could do that before actually telling people IRL.

And now silly me has made another playdate at my bff's house for tomorrow. DH already gave me the green light to tell if I want to, so it's going to take every bit of inner strength to not spill the beans!!

Anyone else absolutely dying to tell?!?!?!!? I was dying to tell with DD, but nowehere near this bad!!

Dying to tell is an understatement

Your showing so much restrain! I told my best friend the second after I told my hubby!

I lied to someones face yesterday. Part of me just wants to tell part of me likes the secret and less people look at me now than they will when they find out. 2 people told me I looked skinny this week I almost lol'd.

With DD I wanted to tell everyone, couldn't wait. For some reason this time I don't want to tell anyone at all. We told our parents and siblings last weekend and maybe 3-4 friends know, I'm good with just that lol.

Ok, your post title makes me want to say, "that's what she said!"

A few close friends know and our parents, plus H's family know.  My grandma has a big mouth and I have a cousin getting married in a couple of weeks and I don't want to upstage her, so no one on my side knows yet.

It's hard to keep it a secret!

I lied to my co-worker/friend too.  It killed me!  Our parents and siblings know, but no one else.  I am absolutely DYING to tell my BFFs.  We planned to wait till 13 weeks, but I'm really thin, and there is no way I can hide it past next week.  It is even a struggle this week (9w3d).  Hence, the lying to my co-worker . . .

I have almost gone in my bosses office like 5 times today to tell her, but stopped myself! I am going to hold out at least until next week! I can hardly contain myself! It just feels sooo good when people know!! I suck at secrets!

wow, my mom would be beyond pissed if we waited that long to tell her. My MIL too for that matter. Pretty much everyone important knows now and we;ll make it "facebook official" after the NT scan

I'M DYING TO TELL!!!!!! I can really barely stand it. The worst part is, I'm totally 100% fine with people knowing now, since I've had 2 u/s and heard the hb twice in the office and a few times at home. The problem is that everything was well orchestrated so I could tell my mom in person (she lives on the opposite coast). And obviously, I don't want to tell too many people until my mom knows. So basically I've trapped myself into waiting until Oct 1, even though I have no good reason NOT to tell except for those stupid plane tickets. I even considered just telling her over the phone, but that's silly now that it's only 10 days til I see her. But dear god, keeping it secret has become the bane of my existence.

Well with DD we waited because DH didn't have a job and he didn't want to tell until he did. worked out that he got hired about a week before our 12 wk appt.

Nobody was mad we waited to tell, but they were more shocked that I was able to keep it a secret that long. When my big bro announced they were pregnant with #2 I thought they were not that far along, but they were 13wks!

So I guess it's normal to keep it private until 12wks. Although I feel like my mom knows now, but don't see why she wouldn't come and ask me, she's done it before.

I'm dying to tell.  I talk to my mom once a week and always want to tell her and we're not even that close. 

I know I'm starting to have the bloat belly, so colleagues at work have noticed and my friends have also noted my lack of wine and unpasteurized cheese intake.  I am a terrible liar, so I'm not sure what I'll do if asked directly.  But I cannot wait to tell people.

I think my mom will understand my desire to be out of 1st tri. It's going to be a huge deal to my fam - I'm an only child and 35, and they've been anxious for a grandkid for years. If I had to go through a loss AND make them go through a loss, it would be extremely difficult for all involved. I'm 99% sure she'll understand that.

But I didn't anticipate that I would feel ready/comfortable telling at 10 weeks, then have to wait three more! Ugh.
