I took a very clear positive HPT last Wed. and I'm 5w2d today! We've been trying to get pregnant again with baby #3 for 9 months now. The longest I had to wait to get pregnant before was 3 months, so this has taken so long. DH doesn't want me to tell anyone yet because I made the mistake of announcing I was pregnant at exactly this same time (5w2d) in July to a group of about 100 people and then started miscarrying that same evening (first miscarriage). It was heartbreaking and confusing but at the same time, I felt very loved and supported by so many. I don't know how long I'm going to wait to tell people this time but I feel like it's not real unless I've announced it. I'm convinced this baby is here to stay because unlike in July, I'm already tired and need to wake in the night to wee and the HPT had such a bold line at a much earlier testing than before. Or maybe it means I have twins .
YAY! We didnt announce til 20weeks and yes it felt like the pregnancy started then. Very weird but it was what we both wanted. Good luck with keeping the secret and congrats on the pregnancy!
fwiw..I kept the same secret too, for 17 weeks, so I can TOTALLY understand your need to announce to someone your special and exciting news So celebrate here with us at BB!!
