I've just found out that I am pregnant unexpectedly with dc5. We are surprised but will manage fine.
My worry is that I have 4 close friends who can't have longed for children. Any advice on how I break this news to them? I understand hearing of someone having a 5th baby that wasn't planned will be hurtful, even if they wish the best for me.
Is it better to do this in person or by email, to allow them time to react as they need to?
Is it better to say sooner or later?
Two of my friends are my very best friends so I know from supporting them through other announcements that they will find this tough but not sure what might make it easier.
Thanks
