I Couldn’t Keep My Pregnancy a Secret 🙈

I told people I was pregnant as soon as I found out… well, at least my closest loved ones. I called my husband at work right after I took the test because I couldn’t wait to tell him. I know some people like to wait until after the first trimester, but I shared the news with my family early on. Even with the risks, I wanted to celebrate the moment.

When did you tell people you were pregnant? Right away, or did you wait a bit?

My best friend and boyfriend? As soon as i knew. My family and friends? 12 weeks minimum everytime. My mom was the only exception to this. At 12 weeks days before telling everyone our last pregnancy they found abnormalities that resulted in a loss I cant imagine navigating everyone knowing before I had a chance to process it. The comments from people after finding out weeks later were annoying at best and horrific at worst if that wouldve been right away i wouldve broke.

I had a friend who is not a friend anymore she kept pushing me to not tell any one to I was 12 weeks but told every one when she was only six weeks and started being nasty with me any time I bought up my an appointment then later in life after I had my son and was back to work she was sending a co work pictures of pregancy test screen shot off of snap chat and I had the same pictures on my messager that she had sent to me with her last pregancy then told everyone she had a miscarriage and then ended up getting pregnant a week and a half later ... she was never pregnant and then with the same coworker was trying to get with him while she was pregnant with her husband child I feel like people do anything over jealous and I just cut all communication cause thats just disturbing to me
