Absolutely LOVE all of this and am totally copying that list to write out for myself! So exciting days for you … <3
Hi,
You wrote a post about the decision whether or not to share pregnancy news in the first trimester. You didn’t share your pregnancy on your blog until your second trimester, but did you decide to tell your loved ones earlier than that?
Hi Jen! We decided to tell our immediate family and a few of our closest friends just after we found out. It’s a really hard secret to keep and having their support made getting through the first trimester that much easier. I think its a personal decision that is so different for everyone so listening and doing what feels right to you (and your partner) is the most important!
