[quote=Anonymous]So I've had three early losses and 2 live births.  I went loss-live-loss-loss-live.  Just for reference

I always shared with my DH immediately.  I needed his support.  By the 5th pregnancy we were pretty blase about it.  Just kind of seeing the positive test as a step in the right direction, but hardly a guarantee.  Each week that went by we were obviously more invested.  But the thing is: you can't stop that.  You will be a bit invested no matter what.  You will be upset and sad if it ends, no matter how you treat it.  That helped me.  So I'd share with the people close to me if it came up, but I didn't go out of my way to share what I knew I may have to take back.

But I always shared with my DH.  Everyone else is up to you.

With my 2 healthy pregnancies I felt pretty good about sharing once I was in the 2nd trimester.  But that's because all of my losses were before 7 weeks.  So by 13 weeks or so I felt pretty confidant.  Yes, there is always a bit of anxiety about what could go wrong.  But it lessened with me as the pregnancy went on.[/quote]
