Looking for a cute/good way (Sorry Long)

to tell my family we're pregnant again. Just a little background...

I have a ds who is 3 and a dd who is 10 1/2 months. I was BFing and found out in June that I was pregnant. It was a very big surprise. My sister at that time was diagnosed with PCOD. She was extemely upset about the diagnosis. I told my parents about my preg but since I didn't have a last MP date I didn't know when I was due. i was very worried about my sister's reaction so we decided to tell her after I found out how far along I was. Well a couple of weeks later I miscarried.

I eventually told my sister about the miscarriage. She was very upset for me but I found out later that she was venting and said she was also mad because it was an opps and we were also thinking that 2 was enough. SHe's only human and has every right to fell this way.

I'm very worried about telling my sister again but I'm very excited to tell my parents. Last time I had a shirt made up for my son that said GUESS WHAT? and on the back was I"M GOING TO BE A BIG BROTHER! I would love to use my kids again to tell them but how? Also any suggestions on how to tell my sister?

I think you need to be extremely sensitive with her. I would not spring it on her with everyone around in a cute-sy way. Are you two close? I would tell her before you tell the rest on the family - in person if possible. And I would stress that you are very concerned about her feelings.

As for cute-sy ideas, I'm not very creative that way. Sorry. I have no ideas.

Good luck!!

I agree with SuzyQ- you need to be sensitive with her. I would tell her person to person. Make it a special moment. I wish I had a creative idea to give you!
