Pregnant after a Loss

Did you anounce on FB?

And if you did, how many weeks were you when you did it??

Re: Did you anounce on FB?

  • I think I did. Not really an "announcement" as much as it was just putting it out there for people who aren't in my immediate circle.

    I think I posted a picture of the ultrasound around week 8.

  • I posted that my husband felt the baby move last week so around 18 weeks.  I never made an official announcement though.

  • I announced on FB after my successful 12w appt. (11w5d). Successful = hearing the h/b on the doppler. I was 12w1d when I announced.

  • Yes- after our NT scan I did (13+w). I didn't want to be "outed" by someone else on my page. I did word it so that others who didn't specifically know about our previous losses would know that this wasn't an easy journey. I said something like "thrilled to finally be able to announce a healthy pregnancy!"

  • Yea, did this yesterday. Lots of college friends and such that I don't talk to regularly enough to call them up and tell them, but I wanted them to know.

  • Nope. Everyone who needed to know was told by me or family. I personally didn't see a need to announce on FB.

  • Yes.  Right after the NT Scan (13w6d).

  • I announced after our big u/s (which was pretty early, at just over 17 weeks).  This way I could announce the pregnancy AND that it was a boy all at once.

    Yes, shortly after the new year when I was a week or two past first tri. I put something like "2010 the year (this and that) and our family gets a little bit bigger with a blessing in July"
    In memory of precious Julia, sweet baby James, and now Timmy who fought so hard.

  • I announced after our NT scan at 13w3d. I have a lot of actual friends on FB that I don't get to talk to on the phone because of distance (8-12 hours time difference doesn't make phone conversations easy lol).

  • Nope. I've locked down my wall actually until I tell one more friend in person.  I figure I'll just make an announcement when baby is here.

  • I did at the beginning of my second trimester. Since I'm soooo cool, I posted a poem. I did this before our due date changed to 11/29.

    There once was a family named G****er. To add to their count they were eager.
    Now they are three.
    Soon four they will be.
    Come 12/1, our size will no longer be meager!!

  • Not yet. And not sure I will until my baby's here. My BF just lost her twin boys at 21weeks in April so I dont want to hurt her anymore than she is.
  • I never did, however those that know me didn't even hesitate to post it for me.  It was out of my control.
  • I did right at 12 weeks when the results of our NT scan came back normal. 

    I was ready to share my happiness and also have plenty of support if something happened.

  • I announced both on FB as soon as I found out. So 6 wks and 4 wks with this one. I realize that a lot of people don't do that but I'm a very open book type person and I prefer to talk about things. I had to do the m/c announcement with the first one and I was prepared to do it again if I had to, but luckily I didn't!

  • Well, we did it.  We "outed" ourselves.  Can't take it back now...*gulp*
  • I did at about 14 week, after we told everyone we needed to tell personally.  I still don't mention it much on FB, but other people bring it up a lot on my page.
  • I did on my birthday. That I wished for nothing but a great appointment and that our November baby was healthy because my NT scan was on my bday. 

    I try not to whore it up with the pgcy b/c i have a lot of friends that have had losses but sometimes i mention it.

  • We did not. I even erased some posts from my page that others eluded to. I just did not see the need. Yesterday was my birthday and someone said  hear your having another birthday soon. I just decided to let it go. So I guess I am sort of "out"
  • I didn't actually post an announcement. I posted u/s pictures right around 14weeks. Some people are still just finding out for the first time.

  • Yes.  We announced at a little after 11 weeks.  We told my parents at 11 weeks, and my sister outed me on FB before we could actually do it ourselves after the NT scan.
