Hello everyone! My name is Tiffany, and my husband and I just found out yesterday that we are pregnant with our first child! Of course this is a very exciting time for us, and we're dying to tell everyone. There are a few people we want to tell first, though, before going "public." One of them is my best friend... however, she just informed me about a week or so ago that she miscarried :-(

Does anyone have advice on how long I should wait to tell her, or how I should tell her? Before she miscarried I would have just called her up and blurted it out... but regardless of how long I wait, I feel I should take a more sensitive approach... any suggestions?

to JM!

on your pregnancy!

I'm not sure how I'd broach the subject with your friend but maybe I'd wait a bit seeing as what just happened to her. Not sure the appropriate length of time though.

hi, welcome and congrats!!!!

i would probably wait a little longer before telling her. and when she feels a little stronger i would gently tell her. it will hurt her a lot so just be patient with her.

i dont know when you are due, but you should def check out your due date club.
