no more secrets

Now that im starting to tell my family about my pregnancy i am feeling overwhelmed.  I liked having it a secret between my bf n i. Im almost feeling depressed and anxious. The way i feel trying to tell ppl is probably how someone feels confessing to a murder. Instead if feeling relieved and happy about sharing i am extremely upset and scared. Im second guessing myself about being able to go through with this.

I am almost 6 weeks and I have been slowly telling the people closest to me, its hard because I just want to send out a mass message and get it over with so I feel like when I'm around people I haven't told yet like at work, I just feel like I am keeping a secret. Like yesterday when discussing my 5 year olds first day of kindergarten coming up with a coworker, she asked me if I planned to have more kids, since I wasn't too close to her I just said I would like to one day, but I felt like a liar and it ***** having to hold back excitement to some people.

I did that with my first. I was terrified to tell my dad. Like they would judge me and it became real. But it will be ok. They will be there for you.
