I'm currently 7 weeks, and DM thinks it's a bad idea but I am considering telling DD that I am pregnant. I'll hold off as long as I can but I was very unwell in my pregnancy with her (constantly in and out of hospital with HG from very early on) and she's already asking questions about my sickness. I've tried passing it off as just feeling a bit funny but I can tell she's worried. DH is unsure what we should do too as she's been begging for a little brother or sister for years now so we know she'd be delighted. But God forbid something went wrong, I don't know how she'd take that.
This was a very unexpected pregnancy (as far as I knew, it probably couldn't happen again without fertility treatment) so we didn't plan for how to approach this with DD. Do I wait it out or try and explain what's going on sooner?
