telling the family

[mrsgarvick]

After my husband and I had our first child, we were very adamant about not having anymore. about 8 months agao, we started reconsidering. Now, I'm pregnant. We are trying to find a fun way to tell our families. Also, there's some drama. My sister lost a baby boy several years ago. She didn't take it well when I was pregnant the first time. Now, after several miscarriages, my sister has been unable to carry a baby, and now I'm pregnant. I'm not sure how she wil take the news, especially if its a boy. Someone help!

Well first of all you might want to wait until your first trimester is over to tell them about it. During the first trimester there is still a high risk of miscarriage or of something going wrong, so it wouldn't make sense to go through all that drama of telling your family until you're past the first trimester and sure you're going to be able to have the baby.

You might even want to wait just a little longer and find out the gender before telling them, if that would make things any easier for you.

Once you get to the second trimester, I'd just tell them it was an accident. Lots of people get pregnant on birth control. You could even tell them you didn't realize you were pregnant until it was too late to have an abortion. Say you didn't have any nausea or sore nipples or anything and you just didn't know you were pregnant.

As far as your sister, she's just going to have to get over it. It is really sad what happened to her, but you can't plan your whole life around pleasing your sister. Make sure she gets an opportunity to be an auntie, playing with the kids and taking them out (as long as you and your husband are OK with her doing that). And other than that there's nothing you can really do.

Congratulations on your pregnancy.
