Pregnant after a Loss

OMG waterworks

These pregnancy announcements on you tube are making me cry! makes me wish I could announce in person to my family. I need cute ideas on what to do when you are far away! I was thinking of sending a picture frame with an ultrasound to my mother or personalized candies. I am not sure

    You haven't told your mother yet? How is that possible??? I'm only asking because it was really hard for me to wait until our 7w u/s to tell my parents.

    It didn't work out to tell them in person, so I sent them a card with picture of the u/s inside and the EDD, and told them to call me before opening it.

     

    Because I have an IC and I can go into preterm labor any time and lose the baby. I lost my son in Jan and I am scared to say anything until the baby is at least 24 weeks so LO has a chance at life incase I go into labor. Its easy for me to keep it hidden because we live out of the country

    Thats amazing ahahaha. I cry for everything too.... disney movies too hahaha

  • Do you Skype with your mom?  I would send her a card or present announcing you are pregnant.  I would have something on it saying don't open until you talk to me first.  Then you could see her reaction.

    No, she doesn't do the whole internet thing :( I was planning on sending something but I am not sure what exactly to send.

  • We told our parents super early with the first pregnancy (lesson learned on that, but anyway)... since we live several states away from both of our families, we sent each grandparent a package with a onesie that that "Grandma loves me" or "Grandpa loves me"... and that was it... no card, no words needed.  Smile

    The phone calls we received when they opened the packages were hilarious!!

    We will probably still tell our parents pretty early again... maybe around Christmas.  Its scary to spread the news so soon, but if, God forbid, something went awry with this pregnancy I would need the support of our families again.

  • We told our parents at a belated Mother's Day get together.  I ordered each mom a copy of the Grandma's Handbook, a picture book that I knew they would enjoy about grandmas, and a u/s picture.  We were there when we opened them, but you could do something similar mail wise. 

    I'm sure however you make the announcement, your mom will be thrilled.
