[Emmamb]

But I'm not goin to,def gonna wait til i've had my scan. It's just that matty (3) was sat watchin tv,the programme had a new baby in it,he turned and said " do we have baby?" was the perfect moment to tell him that there was 1 growing inside me can't wait to tell them now. xxx

Aw it's so hard keeping it from them isn't it! I managed to hold on till 10 weeks with ours..the oldest didn't take it quite so well he's ok now though! The youngest absolutely loves it and he so can't wait! He's been nagging for a baby for ages lol

i didn't have much choice to tell my kids and my step daughter who lives with us,one my girls went thru my drawers and found the test grrr.we had only just found out ourselves altho we had an idea.

the girls r 11,13,14 so they all said they had an idea as i have been ill a lot and putting on weight in my belly-i do slimming world so they said i shouldn't have been putting on weight especially when i lost 4 1/2 lbs over two weeks lol

they took it well altho hsi daughter has been saying negative stuff the last few days but think its cos of money at the mo and the arguing

hope it goes swell when the time is right to tell them xx

I can't wait to tell mine either. They will have no idea as they are 11, 9 and 8 now.
We are pretty sure my oldest saw the pregnacare vits in the kitchen cupboard when making himself a hot choc in Jan, but may have forgotten now. I was a week or so away from telling them last time when I had the MC, that was 2 days before mothersday, and OH and my sister and my mates got me some flowers, so they thought I did really well for mothersday (but I looked like a panda). So will tell them after the hosp 12 /13 week scan time, couldn't bear to see them upset if anything happened.

My little one (my daughter) is soo desperate to share a bedroom like the boys, I am trying to work it so the boys end up on their own and she can share with the baby, even if a boy for 5 years or so till older. (it is def her turn!) It might even help her calm down and grow up a little.

My girls keep asking me because of the weight I have put on (not preg related) and the empty test boxes in the downstairs bathroom. I really want to tell them as they are driving me nuts with arguing at the mo. I hope they will give me some peace once they know.

I have 2 boys 17 and 15, plus the girls 13 and 12. My step-daughter is 13 too. I think they could handle the news but the boys would worry they would have to share a room again (hard life isnt it) and im concerned its too early incase anything happens.

I have been very paranoid this time round...
