Does anyone have any advice for me on this? Here is my situation.
I found out I was pregnant a little while ago and had my first ultrasound a few weeks ago. I decided the best time to announce to my family was on Feb 1 because we were having my birthday party and everyone would be in one place.
The day before the party I got a call from my aunt telling me that my uncle was not going to be there because his wife had just had a miscarriage a few days before. I was blown away by this as I hadn't even known she was pregnant to begin with. I decided then not to announce anything about my pregnancy yet.
I want to know if it seems insensitive to announce to my family now after the loss.
Some backstory.... My uncle just married her in Nov 2013. I do not know her very well but she seems quiet and polite and very very nice. I also know that she was very hurt by this miscarriage. (they are having a funeral for the baby [she was 9 weeks along] and she is very depressed right now).
I dont want to come across as inconsiderate but I am very excited about this and can hardly keep it to myself.
Has anyone gone through this before that can help me?
