When do/did you tell kids you are pregnant?
I am 13 weeks. Our boys are 7, 5, and 3. I was going to wait as long as I could, like maybe shortly before Christmas. Our 5yo has sensory processing issues or possibly high functioning autism/etc. (no diagnosis yet but he has an iep) and has had a really rough time transitioning from 3hr preschool to full day kinder so I have not been ready to throw his world in turmoil yet again- but then again- he is the one that is asking at least weekly for us to have another baby- a sister please. (I am pregnant with a girl.) Then again, my pregnancies are high risk and our daughter was an emergency c-section at 23 weeks and did not survive being so early. But, I wouldn't not tell them something like that anyway, they know they have a sister in heaven,etc. , plus I have had 3 relatively uneventful pregnancies since that pregnancy- they just are watching me much more closely and I'm on blood thinners. So, I am all kinds of conflicted. I am actually leaning towards maybe after my 16 week ultrasound maybe after halloween but before thanksgiving... I am bigger this pregnancy then any of my other pregnancies so no idea when I will start showing, but they are all pretty oblivious about that sort of thing anyway.
