Who have you lied to?

My tally so far

Coworker- Asked me if my cysts that are keeping me from running having something to do with me not getting KU yet (she's a biotch and likes to rub it in that she got KU before me).

To which I said why yes it is I totally can't get KU because of that(I am 4ks pregnant)

Assistant- She knows I should be starting this week and being put on clomid and we haven't talked about it at all and we ALWAYS talk about everything!

MIL- She is very nosy and asks how "IT" is going all the time and she asked if I had gotten my period (we are all very open) and DH told her no since he isn't getting any sex.

My Mom- I tried on a bunch of clothes with her the other day and it was SO awkward being half neked and knowing I was pregnant and not saying anything!

Re: Who have you lied to?

  • that's my problem - i can't lie!  i start laughing, looking away, changing the subject...it's not going well. :)  maybe i need to learn to lie more!? :)

  • No one knew we were trying, so it's been pretty easy so far. We did go bowling with some friends last weekend on Sat before my BFP and I wasn't drinking so they said something. I just laughed it off and said beer would mess up my game. Although I only got a whopping 46 points, so it may have actually helped!
  • My mom!  It's killing me.  I haven't directly lied, but not telling her seems like a lie!  She was talking about rearranging parts of her house, and whether or not to add a guest room where her "storage" room is now.  I kept saying, well "when we start a family" then you'll have to have a room for your current grandkids plus a crib.  I wanted to scream yes you need the room b/c we're having a baby!!

  • I haven't had to really lie, but I have changed the subject a lot lately.  I've already told a few close friends and I'm counting down to tell my fam on Thanksgiving.  We already told MH family because my husband cannot keep secrets and we saw them last weekend.  I just decided we might as well tell them so MH doesn't explode.

  • Actually I think most people will be shocked when they find out. No one knows we were trying - they all think that we were "thinking of trying next year". Plus I don't often drink alcohol or caffeine so no one has noticed anything different.

  • Well no one knew we were TTC, so it shouldn't be too hard.... unless I start getting my m/s next week (at Thanksgiving). I hope not, because I know they won't believe me if I say I am just sick! If I can make it through Thanksgiving then I should be OK without having to fib to too many people...

  • My friend asked me the day we found out.  I didn't lie, but I did skirt the truth.  No one else has asked, but my sis did have to lie for me to my mom and dad until I could tell them.

    I cannot wait for Christmas!

  • sorry - dog was on my lap and she enter too soon!

    two of them flat out asked yesterday and I tried to avoid it but they knew and then one said it was bad luck to lie about being pregnant.  I should never have said that we were going to start trying this fall but I still think it's rude to ask.  

     I told my other two co-workers (more like real good friends) today about it and I did actually tell them that we're expecting, we jumped around like school girls! 

    I hate keeping secrets, it's killing me!

  • DH's family are really rude and obnoxious about it, so we've had to lie to my BIL & MIL.  We've actually had to lie to MIL several times cause she just won't drop it!!  See my previous post yesterday a couple pages back called "Dr./Pt Confidentiality" to get an idea of how obnoxious MIL is being about it.  She's totally ruining the surprise.  We're going to tell them on Tuesday w/ my parents at the same time.  I was excited, now I'm like...what's the point of telling her if she's going to be such a nosy b?
  • I've become a blabber-mouth to the women at my work, but none of my family knows yet. We can't wait anymore so we are telling our families tomorrow.

  • My bff calls last night and says "I just had this feeling you had news to tell me" I was like no way, nothing going on here. Weird thing is I haven't even told her we were TTC. We always talk about babies and such, but not about trying for one!

     I hated lying.

    "Well I've waited so long, so long, so long For someone like you And as this morning breaks through the window pane It reveals the truth Baby, you're my sunshine, first light Find your way to places that only know lies Failed tries and bruised skies With hardly time to hold on or be strong, now I'm strong 'Cos like the dawn you push it all away I tell ya, you're my sunshine

  • DH had to lie to my dad the other day, we all work together and i got nauseous and my dad asked it i was pregnant. lol so DH told him no. I feel so bad.

    and like tons of friends bc everyone keeps asking when we are having another one or saying "your next" or NKB needs a lil brother or sister lol only a few more days and everyone will know bc we are telling family at thanksgiving and im sure within a few hours my mom will have it on facebook!

  • No one has flat out asked me, fortunately.  I have had raised eye brows this week when I have gone to functions and I haven't been drinking.  Thanksgiving will be hard because we're going to the beach with friends and had planned on bringing some nice bottles of wine to enjoy.
  • I've lied to some friends and co-workers.  I told them, "When there's something to tell, I'll tell you."  

    I have told some of my family and DH's parents as well as my best girl friends.

  • We have our neice's birthday party today so DH's family will be around and they all know that we've been TTC. He has already lied to one of his sisters.  We plan on telling them at Thanksgiving but I am a terrible liar!  My face shows everything.

  • I had to lie lie to my sis yesterday. I officially feel bad, it wasnt a skirt around the truth, it was a flat out lie.

    We went to dinner and I dropped her off, I didnt get out to smoke when I dropped her off (Obviously, I dont sneak a smoke with her anymore) and she turned to me and said "are you pregnant?" I said "No, I am just trying not to smoke anymore because maybe that is why I havent gotten preg. yet" She said "you swear?" and I said "yes".

    Ugh, "swearing" on something has always been the way to get the truth out in our family. I totally broke it and lied. I just want to wait until Thanksgiving to tell the family.

  • We haven't lied to anyone really, I don't think many people are expecting it - especially family since they aren't really pushy and would never ask "are you preg yet?"... they know we'll tell them.

    Some of my friends know I wanted to get preg, but since the last time I saw them at another friends wedding I was drinking (I started spotting and thought AF was coming, I realize now it was implantation spotting- oops!) they probably will assume it'll be a few more months before I have the chance to say anything.

  • I've got a new one! One of our really good friend couples asked us to hang out last night and we ate some yummy mexican food and headed back to their place for some dominos and board games. We know they are trying (for over 2 years ) and they know we are trying So if I don't drink with them it is no big deal. They were drinking margaritas and she got pretty drunk and we were having a blast. We talk about TTGP all the time and when she is trying accupuncture, herbs, etc.) and She was asking me about temping and charting and I totally had to lie and pretend like I was still doing that stuff. I felt horrible. I am not sure how I am going to tell her because I know how it feels when someone especially a friend gets KU and you have been trying for a while and in her view I haden't really been trying that long (10 months) and she has gone through all of this pain and dissappointment. She is one of the first people I want to tell I just don't know how to do it without makeing her sad.
