When did you tell family your PREGNANT?!

Question

Other - do tell!

Answer

12 weeks

Answer

Everyone right away. Friends and family. So it took 5 yrs 1 month to our first pregnancy. I was extremely open about infertility during 4 yrs of that. It didn't feel right to not also be open about ALL of it. Unfortunately miscarried that pregnancy. Extremely open about it all. Another 2 yrs 1 month to our daughter. I was extremely open about pregnancy after loss and my thoughts and emotions during that time (higher risk with her) and even after and still grieving and finding ways to celebrate the little one we lost before her. Another almost 2 yrs to our third pregnancy. Missed miscarriage at 9 weeks. Again, very open and raw and honest about the experience. Another 1 yr to our son and I was equally open about pregnancy after the loss before him. I had a very hard time connecting with him. Textbook pregnancy with him and I still felt he could be gone any moment so I was afraid to get attached at any point. It wasn't until he was a few weeks old that I felt safe enough that he was here to stay. Now he's freshly 1 and attached to me at the hip. Even being on this side of things I'm still very open about our journey to this point, the losses we've had along the way, the mental and emotional aspect of it all. I never wanted anyone to feel alone in it if they were going through it in silence. I've had a ton of friends message me and open up about their struggles over the years and how much it's helped them to hear from someone else in similar situations. So. That said just because I'm always open about it, doesn't mean anyone else needs to be. You do what feels right for you. For some it's harder to have to tell people they've lost the baby if it unfortunately ends that way. Or having people who haven't heard yet still asking how it's going. For some (me) it's nice to have that support rather than dealing with it on our own. Having people to talk about it with, especially people who have been there, it was really helpful for me.

Answer

Right away! I ended up having a miscarriage but I’m glad I told them. They were the support I needed to get through it.

Answer

I waited until I was in the clear ! Around about 5 in a half 6 months.. I am high risk and a lot of complications so I did not want to stress about it.. I had multiple m/c in between time so I didn’t want to get to emotional involved with how someone else was feeling even tho their opinion did not matter I had to protect the little human I was growing inside .. totally up to you and whatever you ready to spill the beans.. I see no rush I’m that )
