Telling my family today

Today I am 10 weeks pregnant and, as DH and I decided, I get to tell all my friends and family. I'm excited and nervous and all kinds of not knowing how the conversations will go. I expect most of my family will bring up the previous m/c. I have no idea what I would say to "let's hope this one sticks around..." um..yeah...let's hope. I didn't get to tell them I was pregnant last time because we didn't make it that far. They all got calls a few weeks after the m/c telling them what happened. Some didn't find out at all.

I almost feel like just telling the one "busy-body" and letting them tell the family for me. But that would take all the fun out of it.

I'm off to start my calls...

Wish me luck ;-)

Blessings,

Good luck, Thalia! I've found that telling people has been a little hard for me.

I will be telling my extended family and friends on the fourth of july when I'll be 11 wks. My bday is the third so we will be all together. I am glad I waited until this time to tell the general people--even my in-laws until I felt more confident. I know what you mean about anticipating that someone will give backward congratulations like: hope this one sticks. Good luck and I'm right there with ya!
