Hiding your pregnancy is a superpower pls teach me
I’m about 6 weeks along - getting my dating ultrasound soon - and my SO are trying to hold off telling family / friends until July long weekend. It’s our first and the first grandkid for both sides. SO wanted to wait until we were safely out of T1, but I want some support if we end up miscarrying, plus my fam and I are really close so keeping a secret from them is tough.
We also live in an urban city and are the first of our close friends to have a kid (although lots of people in my small town have multiples.)
GUYS. How did you hide your pregnancy?? I’ve got some all day nausea, super sensitive smells and my nipples are so weird and tingly so I’m constantly stopping myself from grabbing my boobs. I work in an open - concept office and my job involves “grabbing a lot of coffees” with partners and clients. We host a lot of guests, wine and cheeses, etc and turning down drinking is something people raise an eyebrow at. We have told people casually that we are trying, but want to play it cool for now.
So any random excuses, advice and moves appreciated!
