Telling work colleagues

[Mrs CW]

Hi all,
I'm probably really behind everyone else but I haven't yet told all of my work colleagues about the pregnancy! A few know that have too but thats all and today my manager asked when I was going to tell everyone. I'm dreading telling them, I have no idea why, and I have no idea how to even start the conversation. I can't tell them all in one go as we're never all in one place at the same time. Does anyone have any advice on how to tell everyone? I don't know why it's freaking me out so much!
Thanks

By email!

I wimped it and sent an email to my boss and the office manager. My boss asked if he could tell another colleague who is organising rotas, and then i sent an email to another colleague to let h er know in relation to why I wasnt in and that i was at a docs appointment.

They were all terribly nice though.

I told each of my team in their monthly 1-2-1 meeting quite early on but I was moving to a different department. I did send an email out to the department very early with a massive hint though. I basically said I was giving up smoking and apologised in advance for either biting their head off of crying lol a few guessed then but were too polite to say anything

Email sounds good! The only problem with that I'd half the people I work with don't read their email. I think most of the girls know as I've not been on any nights out recently but I just can't tell them x

Stick your scan picture up on your desk, it won't be long before they notice

Ha ha put it on the PI screen lol and hopefully they will notice it isn't a pelvis or boobie lol

I just mentioned it to a couple of people and then before I knew if everyone knew!

I took the plunge and told most ppl today. Half of the girls had already guessed as I've not been on nights or! Its such a relief! MrsMc I should have put the picture on the PI it would have been so funny x
