How to tell my sibling I’m pregnant?

Question

This might not be the right spot, but how do I tell my sibling that I’m pregnant? I have a 2 year old and she has been trying for over a year to conceive with no luck. Well now I’m pregnant with baby number 2. 
She is my absolute best friend and I know she is going to be absolutely devastated. 
How do I soften the blow??

Answer

She won’t be devastated! She’ll be happy for you, just sad for herself at the same time which is okay. Just tell her in private.

Answer

Unfortunately there isn’t really a way to soften the blow. She will just have to go through the emotions, no matter how gently you tell her. It’s also tricky because some women in her situation don’t like when their friends/family feel they have to tip toe around them, so be careful to not do too much of either. I would say just announce to her privately

Answer

Agree with other comment, tell her privately before announcing to the whole family so she has time to process

Answer

Asked my sister “if I were to get pregnant, how would you want me to tell you” and then I did exactly that— which was just a text. We both started TTC at the same time and both miscarried at the same time so she knew it was a possibility. I got pregnant again quickly while she was still going through the first miscarriage.

Answer

Take her out to a nice lunch or dinner and tell her privately. Stress that you wanted her to hear it from you first so it wasnt such a shock when you announced it to everyone else.
