Does anyone else feel isolated now that you are pregnant?

Question

Keeping the baby a secret till the suggested 12-13 week mark is so hard. I feel like I can't do anything with friends since I'm not able to tell them. It's also hard because I do weekly girl's dinners that usually mean wine with dinner and now I have to worry about making excuses to not reveal my pregnancy.  Just been feeling down the past week when I know this should be a super happy time.

Answer

Yeah, I broke down & told my inner circle so that I could have some social life. I'm such a horrible liar.

Answer

I'm 8w6d and we saw the midwife on Thursday. So excited going to tell the family on Sunday!! Been dying to tell them!!!

Answer

Glad to know I'm not alone. I just want to be able to talk to my friends and family about it. I'm super excited about the baby but can't express it to anyone, it sucks!! It's my first pregnancy and I feel like I'm getting cheated on the whole experience of this little miracle because of the secrecy.

Answer

Im in same boat. I usually say I'm taking antibiotics or that I'm coming down with a cold or something. It is hard. Especially when your so excited! GL to you and baby dust!

Answer

I tell anyone who wants to know (5w3d). Rather hv their support in any event ?

Answer

Same here, what's worse is trying to explain away the nausea, it gets really hard. :( specially for my husband who sometimes has to come and help me with our kid if I can't stand. That has only happened once so far, so hopefully it stays that way till we are able to tell people.

Answer

The hardest thing has been keeping up with the commitments we made before i became pregnant. Not being able to tell anyone, can't show how exhausted I am!
