two sets of friends know. One couple are closer to my DH and the other are closer to me. The scary thing is that all three couples are having diffs but for different reasons. We have unexplained infertility, one couple have PCOS and weight problems, and the other has a genetic problem on his side. Great conversations we have round the dinner table.
Haven't told family as we don't need the added pressure, and I have to say, my parents and his parents have never asked. It's the extended families that do the nosying...
I never really told anyone that we were ttc. We started back in early 07 and after beginning of 08 I started to worry...so I am glad not too many people knew the inner details. DH knew how upset it made me but just figured that our time would come when it was supposed to. I always told my mom and dad that we wanted a family...and once I told my mom the wonderful news of being preg, she told me that I she knew I have been wanting this for a long time...kinda made me tear up...mothers just seem to know sometimes
Just me and DH. I think a couple of close friends have guessed but are not saying anything. I would love to talk to my Mum but she would be beside herself with excitement and I just don't think I could cope with the added pressure. She has one 15 year old grandson, kindly provided by my brother, and ever since she's been asking me when I'm going to provide the next one! We've always been really close and really good friends but she's in her mid-seventies and I think she would be stressed that it doesn't seem to be happening straight away. We have even discussed not saying anything when we get our BFP and waiting until we're through the first 12 weeks before we say anything to anyone.
