[quote=Anonymous]We've been much more open about it now that we're trying for DC #2. For the first DC I didn't want my employers to know because I didn't want a possible pregnancy to influence decisions about job assignments or promotion. This time I'm less concerned about career implications and have told my supervisors so they understand why I need time off or can't travel on certain dates. Family members and close friends know but we don't share certain dates, like the pregnancy test, so we don't get asked questions on those days if we're dealing with bad news. We also have a rule that we'll bring it up if we want to but please don't ask US about it. We'll share when we're ready. Also, since we're doing PGD, I'm sensitive to the fact that some people have a religious/moral issue with screening embryos. We've made our own personal decision and I'm not interested in getting into a debate with someone about it.[/quote]
