How do you hide a pregnancy once you start showing?

Question

I know this is an odd question but due to my work situation I’ve been hiding my pregnancy (I work at holiday for reference) and I’ve been trying to keep my pregnancy on the down low but I’ve really popped now I’m 23 weeks at the moment so you can imagine it’s getting harder to hide so if you have tips pls share

Answer

At some point you might not be able to hide it. If you carry bigger or get a bump then eventually they will know. I carried very very small and at 40 weeks didn't really look pregnant and could have hid it easily. If you are showing now at about half way through you will keep showing. Eventually even a bigger shirt or sweater is still just gonna be a big sweater over a clear baby bump. Just tell them. They don't have to know who the father is unless the dad knows and says something. Sadly that is the risk of cheating with a coworker so while you don't have tomsay anything is he does nothing you can do but eventually you can not say anything but everyone is gonna know. And to me I'd assume people are gonna think something is up if you are clearly trying to hide it rather than just saying you're pregnant. And I mean eventually you will give birth and you'll have to take time off so they will know in the end regardless amd if you plan to keep working there after the baby unless you hide your child and birth not much can be done but be honest

Answer

I haven't told many people I'm pregnant again due to anxiety after losing my 3rd born at 20 weeks last year. I'm a stay at home mom and my family all knows of course but when I go out I wear baggy shirts. It's winter so sweaters are perfect and no one has asked any questions. I'm 19 weeks.

did you know the man was married when you hooked up with him?

Answer

Just tell your job you’re pregnant. They have no right to know who the child’s father is. Is your coworker aware of what’s going on?

Answer

I have a work fleece that's baggy - conceals my 'bump' and, as of yet, no one seems to have noticed. I'm only 15+3 and will be telling my boss this week or next so won't have to hide it much longer.
I think with the colder weather, it's easier to hid under loose clothing and lots of layers.

Answer

Eventually at some point you need to let the job know. That way you still have job after the baby is born. You could always wear bigger clothes to hide it but you will only get bigger.
