Telling people we are having a 2nd child

hubby and i are wanting to try for another baby, ive always been fairly adamant that i didn't want another (lots of issues with first child) until recently, things have happened in our life to make us/me reconsider.. and now i think yeah we could do this again, but i am worried about what people will say when we announce.. but why? i know i shouldnt care what others think as it is our life and none if their concern.. i know i am being stupid right ??

Most people just say congratulations regardless of anything else going on... I mean when the baby's already on the way thats not the time to say anything else anyway

if anyone says anything rude to you, cut them out of your life. You and your husband know what’s right for your family, no one else. If they can’t be happy for you and keep their mouths shut then they’re not worth it

People will just be excited for you. They won’t care you have changed your mind and if they do comment it will be happy surprise not coming from judgement.
People change there minds all the time about stuff.

I was adamant after each child that I wasn't having another, I ended up with 4! I wouldn't worry about what other people think, you will probably find people are very excited for you because they won't be expecting it.

Thankyou ladies I should add that I feel we will be judged heavily as we have friends who are having babies and people will perceive that we are only having another because they are.. I know I shouldn't care but I am too sensative
