Advice needed on sensitivity

[kurtzie17]

My husband and I are pregnant with our first (6 weeks). Our best friends are currently pregnant with their firsts (twins-24 weeks) they are having a HORRIBLE pregnancy. There are several complications and the baby's are fatal and the best chance is if she can keep them at least 30 weeks (they didn't expect her to make it past 14). My husband and I are very sad for them; however, very excited for us!! Suggestions on how to tell them? We want to disclose information around Halloween.

More of a chance the longer they stay in the womb. I have every intention of telling them. We thought maybe we would tell the husband and he can tell his wife when the time is right. We are sad for them, happy for us. And know they will be happy for us but still sad about them. Just hoping to find a way to tell them.

Definitely don't hide it from them.   After I lost my son at 24 weeks,  ppl hid their pregnancies from me and that made me feel even more uncomfortable.   Plus I was still happy for my friends,  even though I was incredibly sad for myself.   Do her babies have a chance of survival?

First congrats to you and your husband! Second I'll pray for your friends I hope things work out for there sweet babes. You can't feel guilty though :( these things are tough but you won't be able to keep that bump hidden. Forever I think once your at your 12 weeks just tell her and her husband one on one personally *Facebook wouldn't be a nice way to find out* :/ . Let her know you love her and you're still a support for her :) . Again congratulations and I hope she and her babies make it to 30!
