When to tell??

I'm due Nov. 12. I feel it is wayyyyy too soon to tell people. I've only told my husband, best friend & trainer. It's sooo hard to talk to my friends, co-workers, & family members  without wanting to blurt it out! If I told people & then the pregnancy didn't last, I would hate everyone to know that. I would have to constantly be telling everyone that I'm fine, I don't want pity. So I'm choosing to wait until the 2nd or 3rd month. But it's torture! How do you deal???

First baby, huh? :) Not that every pregnancy isn't special, but the more you have, the easier it is not to talk about it.  I like the advice given to enjoy the secret connection, secret language you and dh have.

In my previous experience I think its not only safer for you and for baby, if you tell people too early you make for a very long pregnancy. I also love the time when only myself and my husband know. You never get that back so enjoy every stage :)
