Hi, I've told my boss and his boss already, but not sure how I tell the rest of the team. I feel a bit weird sending an email out, but I also feel a bit weird going round telling people one by one to their faces. Lol. I'm just a bit shy with these things and hate to make a fuss!

How did you do it and did it work out well? Thanks!

My close friends at work already knew but I also swopped my usual tea mug for a new one that said 'I'm not fat I'm pregnant' and waited until people spotted it. Everyone was delighted for me - babies being out the best in everyone.

"your boss needs to know but everyone else will just find out "

I don't agree that it's just the boss who needs to find out. All close colleagues do. It affects what you can do at work and it affects your colleagues if you're going on leave for a long time.
