mini outing at work today

Today one of my staff members came up to me and whispered "Are you expecting?" I was so shocked that my response was "Please don't tell anyone!!" I couldn't even deny it.

I'm only 6 weeks! They all know I gained weight in the past 6 months but now apparently I'm "glowing" so its obvious. Plus all my extra weight has moved to my belly so I thought I was being really smart wearing loose top. I work with 7 women, all with kids, so its only a matter of time until they all figure it out. I don't really feel comfortable hiding it, nor do I want to tell anyone yet since its so early but its true, I DO look pregnant!

Do you feel a little relieved that someone knows now?
I always did -- even if it was only one person at work -- I was so happy to not have the 'secret' anymore.
Congrats and happy, healthy pregnancy ahead for you!

i had people at work ask me that early too

imo, life is easier when people know anyway

Re: mini outing at work today

I dont really MIND that they know. I debated telling this girl early anyway. We are all really close. But no, it doenst make me feel relieved that she knows. I would rather not tell anyone until this kid pops out. I dont want to jinx myself!

I actually felt really horrible after I told my brothers and my in laws. I was afraid I would mc that night and had terrible nightmares.

I am just waiting for someone to ask me at work. I am only 5 weeks but my pants are fitting very tightly already and I even had to use a hairband the other day! It's my second baby so maybe that's why but I really do not want anyone to ask me. I don't want to deny it and I don't want people to know yet so I know how you feel.
