Anyone else avoiding their friends until their second trimester?

Question

I’m 8 weeks today and several weeks ago we told our parents and siblings about our exciting pregnancy news. I had my first doctor’s appointment today and everything went well and I have my first ultrasound tomorrow. 
I love my friends but I want to wait another 4 or 5 weeks until we tell extended family & friends.  I’m also tired and having some nausea so I haven’t really felt like being social lately. But I also feel like I’m avoiding hanging out with some of my friends because I’ll have to watch what I say. Anyone else dealing with this? What has helped you?

Answer

I'm 18 weeks & still haven't told my friends! I actually just went and got drinks with them on Saturday and sipped gingerale all night...no one questioned anything! happy and healthy 9 months :)

Answer

I'm 13 weeks and 3 days today and my partner and I have only told immediate family  (haven't told any of our friends or any of his coworkers) and decided not to tell our friends until I'm 18-20 weeks. It's a personal decision. We want to keep things private until I'm further along in my pregnancy.

Answer

Yes!!! I have been avoiding all of them, telling them I'm sick because I'm extremely bloated and I can't hide the bump, I can't wait till next week because then I can finally announce 😁

Answer

I’m 10 weeks and we haven’t told anyone except our two year old lol we are waiting until Easter when I will be just shy of 12 weeks. The couple of times I have been with friends I have to watch what I say. Today my daughter said “mom had a baby in her tummy” in front of two of my girlfriends. Luckily they were talking to each other and didn’t hear her, close call lol

Answer

I didn’t tell my friends until I was 6 months. I saw them during that time, but I wasn’t showing much so I could camouflage it lol. 
I told family between 3-6 months. 
Only my sister & boyfriend knew right away. 
Do what works/feels comfortable for you. It’s such a special time & everyday you learn something new about your body. They’ll be so excited whenever you choose to tell.

Answer

Yes!! I feel the same way. I had a miscarriage in December so I’m nervous to tell anyone this time around (aside from family). We saw baby at 6 weeks and gonna see it again tomorrow (9w3d) and again at 12 weeks. I’m thinking of letting people know closer to 15 weeks but only if they ask lol. I’m petite so I’m starting to show a bit and don’t know how long I’ll be able to hide it. Baggy t-shirts will be my bffs i guess 😂 it’s so hard to not wanna spill the beans!

Answer

I told my best friend before my husband. And my close friends before my family 🤷🏼‍♀️
I did avoid my family for a hot minute until I wanted to tell them

Answer

Since this is my 4th pregnancy I tried to hide it but I’m petite and started showing quite a bit by 9 weeks 😫
