Recently, the TTCAL gals posted a thread about their experiences when friends/family announce and what would be their preferred way to receive the news. Well, DH and I are very close with another couple who, last year, chose to end their TTC journey (after 2 losses). DH and I were both concerned about how to share with them news about my pregnancy-- not wanting to cause hurt but also not wanting to hide any longer.
After sharing that thread with him, we wrote and sent an email (after work hours) and sent them a text as a head's up. It was very well-received and we will be seeing them on Friday for trick-or-treating with our DD.
Thank you, ladies of TTCAL. Again, your guidance is so spot-on and helpful.
