Oh to be naive again...

The part that made me cringe was this paragragh:

"Now I'm nine weeks along," Kardashian tells Us. "You're supposed to wait 12 weeks to tell people, but I feel confident."

I wish I was confident to tell the whole freakin' world when I was 9 weeks along.  Oh wait, I did, and 4 weeks later there was no hb.

I wish them the best! (Now I just need to quit being a debbie downer and be happy for other people's naiveness ((is that a word?)).

Wow, really?  I try not to be judgy and I'm sure the show doesn't show the full reality of it all, but it sure seems like they don't get along well enough to be great co-parenters (perhaps I just made that word up?).  I just hope their kids aren't constantly exposed to their parents stress over each other and constant disagreements.

I remember hearing it was a struggle for them so I'm surprise she's so confident.  I guess she thought the hard part was getting there.  We still haven't told anyone and I'm officially in 2nd tri. 

FYI-you aren't a debbie downer we just have a different perspective from the rest...at least we got to have that feeling once...sigh...at least I think I did last time for a few days.

I am so sick of the Kardashians. I admit I have watched an episode or 2 in the beginning but then it just got so annoying. Their lives are so calculated and they don't even know any better - Kris Jenner is the puppet master to those girls. It's sick.

Of course she would tell now, take the media heat off Kim for a minute and then around Xmas it will be all boo hoo Kim's lonely Xmas surrounded by her happy family, she just can't win, boo hoo BS! Sick.

Oops wrong dang sister.  Now that I have the right one this is crazy.  Those two should not have another child...smh

LOL, couldn't have said it better myself.

I saw that... and thought the same thing. When you're a celeb and announce at 9 weeks, you are just begging for attention. But that's the family MO I guess. They need to GO AWAY, for real!

Not to sound too old fashioned or prudish, but, isn't a child a bigger commitment than getting married. I realize that this family is very unconventional but I think that this is a bizarre arrangement. I understand that a lot of people get pregnant before they get married but their intentions are marriage. Vent over.

Oh, well as long as she confident... Maybe that's been my problem all along. I just need to be more confident in my pg! **insert eye roll**

Seriously! And I feel bad for Khloe who is struggling to get pregnant

I was just going to say this!

Ugh. It's one thing to tell your family early on....but making a public announcement to the magazines is just WOW. While I wish her the best of luck, of course......I can't help but feel sooooo bad for her sister Khole! Way to be sensitive toward her struggles...........

I'm sure she told her family before the pee was dry.  They are like that.  It's funny she didn't try to get money for revealing it.

Is that the secret?!? Well good to know-I know plenty of people who will be happy to just "be more confident" and it will happen and the baby will stick! ::good grief::

Sometimes I feel people get even more naive with their 2nd child.

When I was pregnant last time, a friend announced to a group of us that his wife was pregnant agin. She had just taken her pregnancy test that week, had NO idea how far along she was, but they were telling people (they waited 12 weeks with the first), because "she had it so easy the first time they were pretty sure this time would be fine". She hadn't even seen a doctor at this point. I tried arguing with him (he didn't know I was 9 week pregnant at the time) that regardless of how pregnancies go the first time there is just as high of a risk of miscarriage with every single pregnancy. I have plenty of friends that have gone through 2-3 or more miscarriages after a totally fine and successful 1st pregnancy. He didn't care, and of course that following Monday I have my no HB u/s and his wife is now well into her 2nd tri. People aggravate me.

Well, I hate the Kardashians on general principle.

But, I told early with my first pregnancy and I told early with this one, too. It's impossible to keep a secret at my workplace (there are things I can't do at work once I'm pregnant) and I've realized a) I'm excited about my pregnancy NOW regardless of any risks and b) I don't care who knows if I miscarry, and I'd rather people knew than didn't.  I know everyone feels differently about this, and I respect those different perspectives -- but I'm not comfortable judging when anyone else tells.

Same here.   I didn't tell at 12wk and yep we know how that turned out.... I would be happy if it was Khloe.
