I've recently found out that I'm pregnant with DC3, only very early and due beginning of December.
My DH has sworn me to secrecy, but I've told my parents who were visiting at the weekend. I've also told another neighbour, who looked after chicken poxed DC2 while I had a midwife clinic appointment. Oh, and my Zumba teacher!
I know the rule is to keep quiet until a first scan, and I've had the horrible situation of getting to a 13 week scan and being told the baby had died. I had told a million people and it was just awful having to go and break the news. I felt that if I'd kept it quiet then I wouldn't have had the bad news scan.
However, this time round, I'm tried sickly and would like understanding from friends/family and yes I am excited but know that bad things could happen to this pregnancy, but a friend of mine sadly lost her baby at 18 weeks so things can happen at any time.
I really don't know what to do, my instinct says TELL but I know why people think I should keep it quiet. I'm especially concerned about the forthcoming bank holidays, being with friends and trying not to puke, trying to be the life and soul whilst feeling drained and also getting round not drinking wine!!!
What are opinions??
