Pregnant after a Loss

TTCAL advice wins again-- thank you <3

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.

>:D<

  • So glad, you found it useful.
    Your thread seriously opened DH's eyes. If it were not for the thread, he may not have come completely on board to what I felt was the right approach. It truly made a difference, PC.

    Yes, ma'am. I really did. Thank you so so much. 
    They are our "best" friends here, and it was very important to me (and my H) that we share with them in the best possible way.
