Pregnancy announcement after a loss?

Question

With our first pregnancy, we video-recorded everyone’s reactions. But we lost baby girl at 20 weeks. I know that when we get pregnant again, people’s reactions will not be the same. Did anyone here do anything special/unique to announce a pregnancy after a loss? I like the rainbow theme, but am reluctant since carrying to term will really be a miracle. 🌈

Answer

I haven’t announced yet as I just got my BFP with what will hopefully be our rainbow baby. 
We announced early on last time and ended up miscarrying at 18 weeks, two days before our gender scan. 
Both my husband and I have agreed to wait until we are around 20 weeks to announce because 1.) We started trying again ASAP  2.) We don’t want everyone hovering, making a big deal about everything and stressing me out 3.) I don’t think I’ll feel “safe” until that point. 
But in May we’re officially moving 500 miles away and have decided that we’ll have a going away party and announce there.

Answer

That sounds sweet 😊 I’m struggling to decide if I want to announce at 12 weeks or 20 when we get pregnant. I don’t think we will ever feel safe. I’ll probably announce to family and best friends at 12. Social media at 20. I can’t keep it a secret much longer than that, for sure.
