Feeling lonely

[reb2g08]

Hi girls just wondering if anyone is in the same position.

Am 5+5 weeks, not telling anyone until 12 week scan so only myself and hubby know.

Am feeling very hormonal and hubby doesn't really understand thinks I'm just being a nuisance!

Really want to tell my mum so she can give me advice and support me but he wants us to wait!

Why not tell some people you're close to? There's no rule that you have to wait until 12 weeks. My policy has been to tell people that I would anyway turn to if I had a miscarriage (i.e. a few of my closest friends, my mum and my sister). It's been nice having some people close to me know as I can then also winge to them about feeling knackered/crap/sick/fat, etc.

I had the same policy as pp. I told my mum, dad, bro & best mate. They'd all know if something went wrong anyway. Plus it's more fun to share a bit!

Tell your mum. I was in the same boat and struggled on. Wished I'd just told her. It's a difficult time and she will know how you feel.

It's such an exciting time, why not share it with those you're closest to? I had a mc at 6 weeks first time round. Of course I wanted love and support from my best friends and family, but not everyone needs to know! You don't want the IT bloke or accountant in the office to be asking but your best friends and mum might feel a bit miffed to be left out? It's such an exhausting time as well, you need all the help you can get!

I told my mum, my best friend and DH's mum... Then I had a miscarriage. But I don't regret telling them, and told them the next time too when everything went great
