How do you keep your pregnancy a secret?

Hi Annabelle,
I'm having the same dilemna as you. I'm seven weeks. One of my girlfriends said to say I was on antibiotics when a drink was on and we're kind of trying to avoid social gatherings where we can. We were DH's parents and FIL said, "You'll have to stay for dinner and we can have a few reds together." He knows we were doing IVF and just wants to confirm his suspicions. We managed to get out of that one.
I would like to get to 12 weeks but I think it will before then because I'll have to let work know. My job isn't really safe and I do 12 hr shifts so I think it will be out of my hands.
