I'm 12 weeks pregnant and we decided we did not want to tell anyone for a while since we lost a pregnancy just last September.
Well my job has been very stressful and I know stress is something I need to avoid right now and especially because of the previous miscarriage. Well I have been talking with my dad about getting me a job at his work, the reason I have chose to go with working with my dad is its a small company that would be low on stress. I started thinking I needed to tell him that I am pregnant because it wouldn’t be right to put him in that position with the company later on (hired the pregnancy daughter because she pregnant and his daughter) well I told him today and I guess I'm just having anxiety now because its been nice only us know about it for the time being.... Should I feel bad that we didn’t keep our word to our selves and we told a little early then we planned?

I don't know I just like how right now we chose when we want to talk about and its been way less stressfull since last time... maybe its becuase last time the mother-in-law and a certain friend were always wanting to talk about baby names and daycare and I just wanted to take everything at my own pace think about one thing at a time i feel like this time my mind has been so much more clear then last time. But i need a differnt job or im going to hurt my self or the baby with all this stress

You have to do what is best for you and your baby. Don't stress about what could and what might happen if. Everything is going to work out. I too took over 3 months for both of my pregnancies because I wanted to have that special time with my husband and only him. It was great. If I were to do it again I would wait as I did before. You don't need all of that extra stress of question and extra stress even if it does come from family.
Could you ask your dad to keep it quiet for a bit. That would relieve some of your stress. If you don't go work for (with) your dad there's always other jobs that you could have!
Best of luck and don't double guess yourself. Keep reminding yourself you are doing a great job! Always do what's best for you and your little one! Don't worry about what everyone else thinks! Things will work out!

Just tell them that your not ready to do the name picking ect yet , but that you are pregnant, and you must stay stress free. They will understand. They know what happened before, Bless you and your baby
Im in the same boat, im 20 weeks and most of the family doesnt know.

Well the cats out of the bag now! Try not to stress, everything will work out. They were going to find out sooner or later anyways. Good luck and God bless

Well, technically, you are past the danger stage. If your dad hires you then great. Don't worry about telling, either. It's crying over spilt milk.
