[quote=Anonymous]It's not hard. Just... don't tell anyone you don't want to. Be explicit about boundaries with those who know about it (parents, in-laws, etc). I had the same preferences as you and just had to say no quite a few times - to baby showers, to in-laws visiting at hospital/home soon after birth. I did not announce pregnancy at work or to friends. Believe it or not most people have enough going on in their own lives and are not waiting to pounce on a new baby.... or the mother. It's within your control how much information to let out and when. And yes, I did enjoy my very private pregnancy and postpartum! [/quote]
