Advice please 🙏🏻 Myself and boss both trying TTC
Hi ladies, I would love to hear some opinions on how I should handle this situation:
My husband and I have been TTC for our first child for a while - this will be our 8th month.
I found out my boss and her husband are also TTC. Earlier in the year she said they may start trying and then decided against it. She already has a son and fell pregnant the first month trying with him.
We are a small company with only a few employees and my concern is that we get pregnant and then end up being on maternity leave at the same time, and that it looks bad if I fall pregnant when she has said she is TTC and I haven’t said anything.
My question is - should I sit down with my bosses and talk to them and let them know I am also trying? My husband says no, because it Mag cause unnecessary tension as we may end up being pregnant at completely different times.
But I am also concerned that if she does fall pregnant that then pushes our trying out in order to avoid us both being on maternity leave at the same time.
I just feel so confused and upset because I don’t want it to cause any problems at work; but at the same time I feel that we have been trying for so long and that other people’s plans should dictate mine and my husbands future, and I just don’t want any negative energy around this issue.
So - do I sit them down and speak to them or do I leave and see what happens, and deal with it if it happens and we both end up conceiving close together?
Thank you! Baby dust to all!!! 🌸
