My husband doesn't want us to tel our families were pregnant because of so many losses

Whitney • New Squishy Coming 2/28/18...🎀Evalina LaDonna 2/24/16 🎀....✨Angels: Zander 6M, Journey 3M
6.19.14 we lost our baby boy Zander Wyatt at 6 months along.
1.21.15 we lost our lil girl Journey Azalea at 12 wks.
4.25.15 we had a chemical pregnancy.
And we're pregnant again-- husband wants to wait until first real ultrasound appointment around 12-14 weeks or I'm obviously showing before telling anyone because he doesn't want to have to feel awkward around them again if something happens..
I want to tell my mom and dad but he doesn't want me to for a lil while either and he's not telling his mom. 
I feel guilty hiding something from my mother when if something does go awry I would like to k is I have her praying for us... 
I understand him being cautious because of so many losses that Drs and specialists say we're not at all related.. But... STILL!?

You need support and prayers more than he needs to worry about feeling awkward. Sorry I can't sugar coat things. But find a nice way to explain that to him.

I agree with you, you should tell your mom and dad at least. Their your parents and nothing but an additional support system. If worse comes to worse they'll be there for you. Then at 12 weeks you can tell people other then them together.

You and your husband are a team. Try it his way this time.

I had a stillborn last year, I'm now 6 weeks pregnant. After what I went through last year I'm not sharing my news with anyone besides my parents until I'm far along in my second trimester.
