I really wanted to avoid telling my manager about being pg until the 2T but I have been so nauseous and tired that I'm thinking I may have to tell her soon.

Hi Jenna,

If it's weighing on you, I'd say tell her. It sounds like she'd be completely understanding, and you'd probably feel some relief from letting her know.

After my m/c, I was sad that I never told people for two reasons: 1) I didn't get to share any of my pregnant time with anyone; and 2) everyone found out anyway that I had a m/c because I was out of work for a week.

I'd say don't live in fear (I know, easier said than done!)...you're pregnant now, and that's nothing to hide!!!! :)

Oh Jenna, honey, I say tell her. Other than DH, my boss and coworker (granted it's only the 3 of us in the office) were the first people I told. They knew all about my IF issues and my boss is super flexible anyway and now that I'm pregnant, she's extra sweet! Whenever I'm not feeling good she tells me to go home and relax if I want to, she'll go out and get lunch rather than have me do it...they basically treat me like royalty! LOL! I bet your boss would be the same. I think it's a great idea to tell her that you aren't ready for others to know but wanted her to be in the loop. She would probably appreciate that.


YAYYYYY again on you being preg!!!!
