We have a birth child and are very soon going to matching panel for a match that SWs are very confident will go ahead. Things will move quickly after panel so we are preparing birth child and getting things we need ready. Birth child knows the child's first name and an approximate age. This afternoon she excitedly told a group of her friends about her. I had a slight panic but then thought does it really matter?? Our close friends and family know an approximate age and first name too and everyone is getting very excited at what will hopefully be the imminent arrival. I just wondered how other people handled this stage especially with birth children? How much did you tell people and when? I can help feeling anxious that people know but then I am also someone who told friends and family early in my pregnancy with birth child because if it hadn't worked out I would have wanted their support. Do I need to duct tape my daughters mouth until panel?!! 
or shall I just relax as the chance of this not going ahead is in SWs words very tiny!
