When you get PG again....

will you announce it on the boards right away or stay incognito for 12 weeks?? Just curious. Im going to wait this time, even with family. DH and I decided not to tell anyone until after the 12 weeks.

Hopefully we will have a nice Xmas gift for everyone, God willing

Re: When you get PG again....

I haven't thought about what I'm going to do on the boards; however, in real life I'm going to tell the same people right away that I told the last time: my parents, ILs, sister, one cousin and one friend. I'm glad I told them the first time and I can't imagine going through a miscarriage again without their support.

Re: When you get PG again....

I feel like I will probably end up telling at least my mother and MIL. The first time the pee was barely dry in the stick when I told them
Seriously though, it was hard dealing with everyones disappointment. Im glad I had them for support but it was/is hard for me to deal with taking that happiness away from becoming a grandparent/aunt/uncle. Of course it was harder on DH and I to accept that we arent going to be parents right now. IDK...I guess I'll see what happens when the time comes.

Re: When you get PG again....

I'm not sure. I think DH and I will wait the 8 weeks till our first appt maybe? I waited 2 weeks to tell our parents and it KILLED Me! So I may have to tell my family. I work for my dad and talk to my parents all day so it would be very hard for me to keep it. I have a big mouth...but we will definitely keep it more quiet from ALL our friends and tell our parents not to spread the word like wild fire like they did this time....

I will go incognito on the boards and am not telling anyone except maybe my mother. This is what I did with DS but I've been more open about it with my last 3 pregnancies... it's giving me reason to be superstitious

Re: When you get PG again....

I told DH that I don't want to tell anyone (except maybe my mom and sister) next time around. This last time we told all our friends and family and it was just hard having everyone know. We recently saw a friend of DH's about a week or two ago. They are friends through business. He came up to say hello and then said "Congrats on becoming a baby mama!" It felt like I got sucker punched. So this time its gonna be on the dl!

Re: When you get PG again....

I had 2 early losses and am PG again. I came out here almost before telling anyone IRL. I value the support I get here and don't have to deal with the disappointment of those IRL. I told a very select few people IRL everytime I have been PG even with DS. Basically a select few closest friends and that's it.

Re: When you get PG again....

We had 2 early losses too. With the first one, we were so excited, we told *almost* everyone. With the second one, DH and I agreed to keep it under wraps for at least 3 months. (We were going to "come out" in September) I told my mom and sister (because they came with me for the transfer). Dh didn't even tell his dad.

We'll definitely wait if we're blessed again.

Re: When you get PG again....

I think about this almost everyday.. Dh and I say we won't tell anybody for 12 weeks, but I also know us, and we have big mouths. I can't see us not telling my parents and brothers, since we see them almost everyday. But I've always been superstitious, and I still feel guilty for how early I told people about our last pregnancy, so I don't know what we will do...

Re: When you get PG again....

I came out on the boards & told my mom & BFF. I don't think I'll tell my mom, weird I know prob. just my girlfriends b/c they'll wonder why I'm not hanging out as much.
