Without giving away too many details. DP and my family travelled very far for the wedding and we won't see them in person again for ages.

Is it a terrible idea to announce our 5/6 week pregnancy?

We really really want to. Know odds of keeping pregnancy are 90-95%.

We would be telling all these people if we had a misscarriage anyway.

I can imagine this moment being truly special and I would like to make a beautiful moment with the assumption that all will be well.

What are your thoughts?

It was just that other people's emotions aren't necessarily helpful. It seemed possible, even likely, that I would have to terminate my pregnancy in order to receive treatment for a condition that had only been discovered during my 12 week scan, which was why I personally didn't tell anyone for ages.

I don't think I would have struggled with terminating, but I certainly didn't want other people being terribly emotional about it on my behalf.

And I've had friends miscarry and it been, for them, anything from the minor inconvenience of a late period to a complicated and heartbreaking bereavement when friends' twins died just short of whenever it is a miscarriage turns into a stillbirth. I suppose what I'm trying to say is that there's no 'standard' experience of miscarriage.

I would probably tell people if it was obvious from me not drinking but otherwise I’d probably waits
I always think you should be cautious with early pregnancies. Miscarriage is very normal.

Don't do it
