[quote=Anonymous] Trigger warning! Skip if you don't want to read personal, upsetting info. Keep in mind I had my babies one the late 90s and into the mid-2000s. First baby I told only my parents and then not until I had a then-early sonogram around 8 weeks. Announced to ILs after 3 months. Second pregnancy ended in miscarriage requiring surgery at 13 weeks. Again I told only my parents because I had reason to believe this pregnancy wouldn't go to term. ILS found out when DH called to advise that I'd had surgery that resulted in loss. ILs, as usual, weren't at all concerned about my health and subsequent grief but instead were angry that they didn't know I was pregnant. Third and fourth pregnancies I again told my parents after my first ob. appointment so maybe 2 months. ILs I told at 3 and 5! months, respectively. With my last, I made a game of covering up and dressing to disguise the brief few times I saw them. [/quote]
