Telling people

I told one friend, who was also TTC at the same time. We used to give each other updates and chat about how great it would be if we were pregnant at the same time.

Fast forward almost 4 years later, she now has two children and I have none (although I am currently pregnant). We eventually stopped talking about it and although we're still friends its now like an awkward elephant in the room.

I'm so glad that we never told anyone else. I used to always get asked when we were going to have kids and it was easier to say "not just yet" ...and then sob at home, rather than have people know we were struggling. I'm quite a private person though so maybe thats just me.

Once I had my MC it was then obvious to family that we were trying but suddenly the kids questions stopped and no one mentioned it again. Thank goodness!!

Bloody hell, no we didn't tell people we were TTC...didn't want the extra pressure of being asked for update and how it was all going!

As it happened, I fell pregnant straight away both times so the TTC to pregnant thing was v quick.

Sadly I had MMC last summer and no pregnancy since then...it's pretty obvious now that we're TTC and it's just not happening!

The only people who ask "when are you having another?" are the ones who don't know about the MMC.

Some good friends announced over dinner that they were TTC and she had stopped the pill- I found it cringey but each to their own. It was a good year or so before the pregnancy announcement followed.

I told my mom and my husband told his parents that’s all and I’m so glad I only told them because we lost it so to be honest I have learnt my lesson I don’t think I would tell anyone until I knew everything was ok. It’s horrible telling people if things don’t go well.

God no. Last thing I'd want is people constantly asking me if I'm pregnant yet.

No I didn't but had an ectopic in June so now it's pretty obvious we are trying again x

I told my mum and my best friend but kept it secret from everyone else

No before my mmc at 10 weeks. And now it’s pretty obvious. I wish it wasn’t public knowledge amongst some people as I’ve had the “hows the baby thing coming on” question a few times. We have been TTC 15 months and in the process of investigations so as you can tell, it’s heartbreaking to keep saying “not too well actually”
