So, I went out for dinner a few days ago with friends and it was pretty impossible to hide the fact I wasn't drinking. I did drink a little - nursed a drink, took drink to the loo and left it etc however two friends thought it was ok to outright ask if I was pregnant.
I'm only six weeks pg and I certainly did not feel ready to announce it then and there to the whole table so I lied and said no.
The thing is, with my last pregnancy I told these same friends early to avoid having to lie in these situations, but a couple of them decided to blab and basically a few friends in our wider circle were congratulating me on my pregnancy at 8 weeks! I was really annoyed that they thought it was ok to share my news with people who were also our friends before we had ourselves, and well before 12 weeks.
So this time I'm not telling, but finding it really hard having to lie.
Any tips?? (Probably a bit late now as I suppose they have all guessed, but I'm still not prepared to confirm at this point!)
