Why We are Telling So Early
Posted by Dan on 12 Jul 2007 at 11:36 am | Tagged as: Friends, Family, Life
One thing I wanted to let everyone know is that we are still really early on in the pregnancy, between 3 and 6 weeks. We decided a while ago that if we got pregnant, we weren’t going to wait until the usually 12 weeks. We have had some good friends go through some rough times and have lost their babies and we know that is why many people don’t tell right away, which is very cool. We just felt like even if something happened (God forbid) we’d still want our friends and family to know. We still want people to be a part of our lives whether it’s full of joy or sorrow. Our friends have allowed us to see their struggles and their vulnerability and I really appreciate that. We are family after all.
It is great news! I will be praying for you guys and the new “addition”.
i completely agree. with everything we’ve been through, if we were to get preggo again, i’d want people to know both to share in my joy and, if needed, help me grieve.
i’m super excited for you guys. all four of you will be in our prayers.
That is awesome news Dan! I like very much that you both are being vulnerable with your new joy. I am very excited for you both to come up here in Sept. I’ve been hoping to get to take you on a hike since we’ve been here. I’ll be in school, but we will make it work. It’s exciting up here, we’re basically hanging out waiting for the baby to come. Any day now…
That’s so awesome! And I’m so happy for you guys! I’ll continue to pray for the family : )
Love you guys!
