I think I would have to tell my nan that there was no excuse for betraying your trust and that her actions will make you think twice about confiding in her in the future.

I did tell her that. So did my mother. None of us can trust her with anything now.

This happened to me when i fell pregnant last time, i told my friend/cousin (cousin by marriage) I said dont tell anyone because something didnt feel right with it and was having tests etc, she then told her mum, who told her brother who told my uncle who told my aunt etc etc etc, and then just after i had miscarried i had my family calling and texting me to congratulate me on my pregnancy!!! was really horrible!!

Thus, this time OH and I have told no1 yet, once we have had a scan and got our heartbeat we will tell parents and rothers and sisters and the rest can wait until 12 weeks!!!

Next time I'm pregnant or something big happens that I want to keep secret I'm telling NO ONE.

When we found out we decided we weren't going to tell anyone till we had the scan. well i ended up blabing to my younger sister and she started telling my cousins. I was so worried my dad and other relatives (from that side) would find out i had to tell my dad over the phone b4 he heard it from anyone else.
I still havnt told my grandma on the other side, i said my mum can do that while im on holiday next week hehe give her chance to calm down and get her head round it.

I'd be fumming, i told my family and said thay we didnt want it discussed with anyone til we had our 3month Scan!!!
And my dad said ok thats fine, and then a few days later he called asked how i was and said, i havent told anyone not even you Auntie and Uncle!! And i snapped!!! If i say do not tell a sole, then i mean no one, dont tell me who you havent told, as i've told you no one is to know!! He was like erm ok!!!

we havent told anyone, nor do we want to, lol.
i was thinking of not telling anyone and waiting until it was impossible to hide, they know im a secretive type anyway, so probably wont be surprized either.
