Announcing pregnancy to child
Show your support
@Rose My daughter knows I’ve miscarried twice already. I’m only 8 weeks but after 5 pregnancies you can already notice haha. I was laying with her and she said “it looks like you have a baby in your belly” I don’t think I could hide it until 16 weeks. I’ll be showing pretty visibly by then.
Yes..I was the same way. It was hard to hide it and literally the week I was gonna tell them my oldest two kids commented the same thing saying they think I have a baby in my belly and I always said “that would be pretty crazy or pretty cool” or something like that or just say “oh really you think so?” And just kinda leave it at that. And then I could get by longer… Do what you want of course but to me it was better to make the wait not so long for them. And those last 5 months were still long for the kids and me lol to answer their questions all day long about everything lol
Around 16-20 weeks! It’s a long wait… and it’s hard to tell your kids something happened if you’re prone to miscarrying like I am. I have 4 kids now. I told my 3 kids I was pregnant when I was like 17ish weeks along on Christmas Eve last year. My oldest was almost 7!
