Did I do the right thing? Pregnancy announcement
A little back story, my husband and I have been trying to convince for 6 years. Been through a lot. Multiple clinics , medicated cycles, IUI , IVF , 3 miscarriages two failed embryo transfers. We decided to try and change our lifestyle and I lost 80lbs and he changed his diet. We were blessed with a positive pregnancy test in February and just announced on Mother’s Day at 15 weeks. We have been very on edge but finally felt okay to share. One of our couple friends has been trying for a little over a year with no luck. I have been trying to support her here and there and offer encouragement since we share a struggle in a way. Well, I know that pregnancy announcements are so triggering when trying to convince and I remembered I would be so upset. I did not want to hurt her but I wanted her to hear the news from me before social media in fear it would be worse if she found out that way. So I texted her a heartfelt message letting her know that we were expecting and we wanted them to hear it from us so there were no surprises, and that we are continuing to pray for them and that if it can happen to us after all this time I believe it will happen for them. I told her she did not need to respond and we understood. I have not heard from either of them( I know we said it’s okay not to respond and it is) I just hope I didn’t do the wrong thing. I wanted to be delicate with it and am just praying I didn’t seriously hurt her. Thoughts ?
