Announcing after previous loss(es)
I've been keeping my pregnancy quiet aside from family because of the uncomfortable task of having to update a lot of people after a previous loss. The first time, I was so excited and didn't expect any problems. This time, I know the statistics etc. and felt apprehensive.
My brother, however, did not fully keep the secret (😡) and after it came out I found I was actually relieved! I'm still cautious with who I share it with personally (e.g. No social media), but I'm realizing that living in fear of another miscarriage was keeping me from enjoying this pregnancy. The silence was hard. Now I am just trying to savor the time I do have with it, no matter how long or short it is, and part of that is being able to talk with a few select people about it.
Has anyone else experienced that change after announcing?
