Announcement and Sister Miscarriage
Pregnant for the first time and I cannot wait to tell my family! I am 6 weeks and 5 days today. I am going to wait a couple weeks to tell my parents and in laws. How far along were you when you told the parents?
I have a dilemma. My little sister recently miscarried (a couple of weeks ago) and she knows we’ve been trying for a baby. Is there a good way to tell her? I kind of want to tell her before telling my parents because I’m afraid it will upset her. We’ve always talked about being pregnant together so I think this is going to devastate her. She is my best friend and I feel like she should be the first one I tell. I bought her and her boyfriend a baby onesie saying “Surprise! You are going to be an auntie and uncle”. Do you think I should tell her alone without other family members around? I’m also very nervous about telling anyone right now because I’m only 6 weeks, 7 weeks on Monday and I’m terrified of having a miscarriage. I felt it would be nice to tell her and if I end up miscarrying (praying to god I don’t) at least I will have someone to talk to. Has anyone ever gone through this before. If so what did you do?
