And that's why we didn't want to  tell her but she over heard my mom on a phone call

Answer

You would always want your child to be able to tell you anything and be honest with you so I would do the same with her.. I also wouldn't want the pain and sadness of her bringing it up so happily because she didn't know.  Though it is your decision it isn't an easy one... 1 be honest and teach her to always talk to each other or 2 don't tell her and let her have her happiness.. I wouldn't want to lie but I don't think I could take her happiness away like that.

Answer

Tell her maybe now she has an Angel sibling. That's something what children can imagine. And maybe be sure to tell her the next time you get pregnant not until you show a belly. Sorry for your loss.
