Tape My Mouth Shut

Hi Everyone,

My DH and I are expecting our first child!  We are shocked, scared, and some what in denial (well I am anyway).  We are due November 1st.  

I am very nervous about something going terribly wrong, so I'm trying not to get too attached.  But, I can't keep my big mouth shut!  I've told my mom, a couple of my co-workers, and now my best friend.  I wanted to wait until after my first appointment (March 19) to share our exciting news, but I can't.  I feel like I'm jinxing myself when I announce it, and that I may m/c or there will be no heartbeat.  I know it is irrational.  Any one else having these feelings?

    I know how you feel! I miscarried my first pregnancy and my husband and I are pregnant once again! I don't want to tell anybody until after my first trimester because of what happened previously but it's so difficult!!! I wish I could share this exciting news with everyone. Good luck to you, I hope you have a happy and healthy pregnancy!

    Your not alone; I feel the same way! I'm an RN so I felt that I needed to tell my floor manager once I found out to protect myself against patients with certain illnesses, and I felt guilty for saying something. I know it's weird, but I get it.

    I feel exactly the same way and it is not irrational. After seven months of trying, DF and I finally got our BFP and are expecting our first as well. I am so scared of something going wrong. I don't plan to announce it until we've confirmed the baby's heartbeat at 8 weeks.

    Congratulations! I know what you mean,  I am very nervous as well. I have only told my mom, and we are not planning on telling anyone else until we know more. But it is certainly hard not telling people!

    It's really hard not to tell the world. Like many others we're waiting to hear the heartbeat first. I have told our temporary roommate, (too hard to keep it from him) and my May 2011 Bump group. And of course you ladies. ;)

     

    congratulations and welcome!
