That’s a really long time to wait. You totally could if you want to. But I personally wouldn’t. I show way too early and we wanted to celebrate the time with our families too. If you aren’t close with your family or they cause too much stress then don’t. With our forts and second we told them around 8 ish weeks. After our first ultrasound. This time we told them basically as soon as we found out and saw them in person because they new we had been struggling and trying so we told them when it happened so they could be praying for us to have a healthy pregnancy. I like talking to my family about my pregnancy or getting tips and stuff from my mom who has had 6 pregnancies. So we will talk about it. And if I get super sick or tired they might question it so we told them

When do you start letting people know

I'm struggling to keep my mouth shut as I'm so excited but I don't want everyone knowing if something bad happens

Anxiety

Im on my second pregnancy and I feel really anxious that something bad is going to happen. I never had this with my first. I haven't yet had my 12 week scan and can't get it out of my head that something is wrong. Ive got no reason to think this, but im just really worrying. Anyone else feeling like this?

Is anyone else struggling with start of 2nd trimester anxiety?

It's like it came on out the blue and I juat cannot calm it. I feel so unprepared and worried, and just cannot switch my brain off.

My partner isn't the most supportive, but I do have a great network in a couple of friends and my mum.

It's hard having gone from really enjoying being pregnant and looking forward to everything, to what all of a sudden feels like fear and worry.

Any coping mechanism recommendations are more than welcome 🙏

High BP 3rd trimester

Went in for my 30wk apt and my blood pressure was 134/73 which is high for me I’m usually low BP. Also told her I’ve been having headaches and shortness of breath lately. my doc said she will monitor it at next apt but nothing else needs to be done now. Should I be worried?
