I got my bfp last Wednesday and both DH & I were thrilled as we have been trying for a year. I decided to tell a few key people who could be supportive if things don't work out- best friend, who lives abroad, my mum & my sister.
I've had one of my closest and oldest friends come to stay this weekend and she knows DH & I have been trying for a while, so I finally told her this morning after she'd been quizzing me about not drinking etc. She was definitely less enthusiastic than I had hoped and then proceeded to tell me how most women our age (39) will have a miscarriage first time anyway. She had already told me that she and her other half had decided to put off trying until after the summer so it's not like she could be jealous.
Later this pm I had a bit of a meltdown as I had worked hard feeding loads of guests (all planned before bfp), and felt like my DH was being selfish and she turned round and said "you signed up for this" meaning the pregnancy and the emotional turmoil that brings.
Feeling pretty miserable and scared about everything now, in bed, while they're all downstairs.
