I told dd on Wednesday and of course any requests from me to keep quiet about the pg since it's so early fell on deaf ears. Everyone and anyone within earshot of my daughter now knows that we're expecting. Ugh! That's it with privacy!

My dh and I both wanted a third but it felt irresponsibly in some ways and daunting to start all over. So we gave it a half hearted month between the end of my bc prescription and his up coming vasectomy and HERE I AM!!!:

How to tell all the family (who know of the upcoming vas.) and therefore assume we're set with two. It will be a shocker.
Then there are my parents- I work seasonally and my mom watches my two kids and is slightly overwhelmed w/ my dd (2.5) who you could describe as fiery, energetic and who knows her mind WELL. Luckily work is slowing so my mom gets a break and will maybe welcome the news a bit more.

I want to wait for Christmas to tell (photo of my ds and dd holding the empty car seat with sign "coming soon") but I always have a glass of wine with dinner at my parents and that will be noticed long before x-mas.

First of all, your story is too funny! I mean, maybe it's not super funny to you but I personally love it--of all times. We also got pregnant on a "half-hearted" month. We were supposed to be stepping back and thinking about if it was really the right time for us.

I'm with you on the holiday glass of wine. My parents are visiting us for Thanksgiving and will definitely notice if I don't drink with them. Trying to figure out a way around it. I have a feeling I won't be able to keep a secret.
