Matt and I decided to wait a little while to tell people about the baby. Last time family and friends knew when I was only about 4-5 weeks along. Since the twins' pregnancy was such an emotional event for so many people, we decided that this time we would wait a little while to tell people so that we could avoid some of the high emotions at the beginning.
Of course, I'm not good at keeping secrets, so I have spilled the beans to a few people. Let's see...my counselor (for obvious reasons), my trainer (again for obvious reasons), Dolores (she asked too many questions and I blabbed), Chiara (was nervous and wanted to tell someone), and Drew (he lost a baby right after we lost the twins, so I thought he would understand). I don't want to tell anyone else, but I think some people are getting suspicious.
Nadia has asked a few leading questions lately...like have I been to the gym lately? Have I been watching what I eat? Why am I so possessive of my French fries? hmm...I wonder if she thinks that something is up. My gut is getting round (yes, this early), but I just look a little heavier right now. I'm not sure she would actually notice that it is a baby belly.
I think we are going to tell people in a couple of weeks, but I just am not sure how to say it. Before it seemed easy. I was excited and I just told people. Now I am a little nervous to say it. People are going to be happy for us, but I am afraid they might be worried, too. I am trying to keep this pregnancy negative-vibe-free, so the less people that know for a while the better.
Now if I could only learn to keep my fat mouth shut.
