With the expanding waist line comes the spreading of the news and the expanded number of people aware of your pregnancy. While I had wanted to shout this pregnancy from the roof tops when we found out, I decided that a more cautious approach might be best with my history of perinatal loss. I know of cases where people did share early and then suffered a miscarriage which can be hard when everyone asks how things are going. I am glad that I had shared with a few close friends before we had our miscarriage, they became my support group afterwards.
Now that we are in a safer time, I have decided on a more subtle method and that is telling my friends and family as I see them. All I can say is the reactions of some when they see me is priceless. I was at a family event recently and one or two people were ready to burst trying not to ask and then asking anyways. More to write later, time to get ready for work.
