Yes, I told my principal and vp before school started...I was about 10 weeks at the time. I just told a few teachers on Friday. I am going to post it on fb tomorrow, so all the teachers will know by Monday. I will be 13 weeks on Monday. Don't feel worried about telling your principal. I'm sure he/she will be happy for you! And also understanding if you miss school due to appointments. Good luck!!
