MC- to tell or not to tell?

[Lolcbcb]

Hi ladies
I am new here and have surprised myself for posting! You have been so supportive of each other and I could do with a bit of help...
I lost my baby last Friday at 7 weeks. First time pregnant. Was not ready and am still in complete shock.
I've been off work since but I am planning to show my face tomorrow. Thing is, I manage a team of 25 people and I don't know if I should tell them the truth?
I've told my assistant managers but nobody else (apart from my boss). DH says I should not lie as I've nothing to be ashamed of, but what worries me is people taking pity on me and making it worse?
They are a lovely team but I'm not sure what to do :-(
What would you ladies do in my place? Have u told everyone at work or just closest people?
Any help or comments will be much appreciated.
Thanks x

You only need tell one or two people, everyone else will soon find out.

Of course they will be sad for you, its an awful thing that has happened, but then its done, and life carries on.

Helped me to just get it out of the way.

I would ask one of your assistant mangers to tell the rest of the team and say something like 'she wanted everyone to know but doesn't want a fuss.'

This happened to a lady I work with who had to take the dreadful decision to terminate a pregnancy just after she had announced it.
She asked a couple of close friends to tell people and everyone was very supportive.

Thanks girls.
Think I might just do that. Lying will make me look silly I think as it will eventually come out!
Time to face the real world x

Pretty much everyone I work with knew I was pregnant somehow, but I was off work whilst going through it all so I asked my close friends at work to kind of 'spread the word' whilst I was away. It actually wasn't that bad going back to work and people respected it if I said I didn't want to talk about it. The worst part for me was trying to figure out who even knew I was pregnant & out of those who knew I'd miscarried.
