Telling kids

La

Laura

For anyone who has kids already. When did you tell them that you are pregnant. I have a 7 year old. Had a miscarriage 2 years ago. Where I told him right away. Had a miscarriage a few days later. I'm now 9w3d and dying to tell him but so scared. I've had 4 ultrasound. Baby seems healthy and growing. When did you guys tell your kids?

I’m almost 9 weeks and I’m still so unsure if I should tell my son. We told him with one previously and we lost it and it traumatized him. He’s 6 almost 7. Our daughter is 2 and doesn’t really get it yet. Best of luck!

I had to tell my daughter (4) because I have been so sick and she is usually pretty rough with me. Jumping and using as me as a jungle gym. I couldn’t take it anymore so I had to tell her in hopes she’d get off me 😂🤦‍♀️

I’m waiting until I am twelve weeks which will fall on my daughter’s bday. I would say do it whenever you feel comfortable. 😊

I would wait until you’re comfortable. I was going to wait to tell my 7 and 6 year olds but daddy told them while on the phone with his mom about the news. Even though he knew I wanted to wait until 12/13wks.

I'm waiting to tell my kids until after the first trimester. They are 4 & 3 and just feel like they wouldn't understand if I had to tell them I had a miscarriage or something so trying to wait until the risk goes down

You are basically in the clear now! I would say tell them when you are comfortable to tell them!! I just told my siblings this morning I’m 9 weeks 5 days
