Thanks all, I think I'm going to wait until after the trip. I did do some calling around and I found out I can go to my reg doc under special ins. It funny also cause hubby and some of the family have been saying things like me being preggy? or (with hubby) who is going to come next. So I think something is going on that they are noticing? I have said nothing abonormal, but some have asked if I could be preggy.
Anyway, my next question is, I will tell hubby when we get back, but what about the family? Should we tell them shortly after, or wait until we have the U/S to show the baby? I kinda want to wait at least past the first trimester as I know everyone is not on the side of use having another baby just yet...What have you found to be better, sooner or later? And if later, how long? When I start to show, lol?
I think after the holiday is a great idea. I like to be upfront with my parents and told em straight after i did my test.
But my bf wanted to wait until we had the blood tests bak from the dr's to tell his folks. So thats what we did and stuff what they thought but they were happy with me being pregnant again. His aunt however thinks that I am not good enough for him and because most of the time i say what i think she doesnt like me but even my bf goes who cares she is nothing but a bitch anyways.
So who cares what they think you 2 have your own little family and if the can't accept that then they need to just leave you guys to your own devices. If they are happy with it then good for them.
i would tell your hubby straight away and have him not tell his family until you are comfortable..
I was 4 months pregnant when we told all of our family with all mine as i wanted to get over the 12 week mark and also it was a xmas announcement with all mine.
I was scared as well, but at the end of the day, its a baby you both have made out of love..
I would say after the first trimester for sure..
When I found out I was pregnant I was already in my second trimester (the beginning of it) so we told our family members right away.
And as for others that aren't on the side of you guys having another baby.. Who cares.. Its you and your husbands life.. Having an opinion of a family member should not matter at all.. I know I sure as hell don't care what anyone in my family thinks and they all know it! What I do is my business and if that means to have 10 kids, then by all means LOL!
Good luck.. As for telling hubby.. I think I would tell him right away, rather sooner than later.. I told mine right off the bat.. Well after I took the at home pregnancy test and then we went to the doctor to make sure and sure enough I was! Just let your hubby know that you don't want the family to know as of yet and you want to wait! :)
I agree, I should not worry about what others think, after all this is how my life is...but they are so dear to me, and I'm one who takes what others think about me to heart...I know I know. Hubby, I think I could tell him right away, but at the same time I want to wait a bit longer and when it feels right. I just don't know when that is....
I totally agree with all...it is entirely up you when you let the family know, sweetie....but by what your saying i think they might already have an idea....you must be glowing!!!!
Thanks Janice, yeah they seem to know when things are up...but I want to tell them when I'm ready...Which I agree with everyone, it should be something I'm comfortable with...
When you are ready to tell your family, then do it. I've never had to tell my mum, she has always just known, so I wouldn't be surprised if there are family around you who suspect.
That what itseems...today I told my SIL that I have been queasy for a few days, though not uncommon for me either...and the first thing she said was...hmmmm r you preggy? My other sil too, I said my stomach hurt, which it does alot and she said, your not preggy are you? lol...I guess that is just true, family can just tell....
Thanks, I'm going to talk to hubby about it and see what he says, he knows them best. But they can't blame me for keeping it from them as long as I end up doing, esp since they say it's to soon in a guilt like manner....
I'm thinking at least past the 8 weeks ultrasound...closer to when I start to show which would be about 3-4 months....I just don't want them getting mad that I did not tell them sooner, though you can't blame me for not telling sooner, lol.
