Hello,
I just found out last Monday that I'm pregnant, DH and I are thrilled though completely shocked! I'm approx. 5-6 weeks, due in early Feb (seems so far away! I'm sure it will fly by though). I've had to have some hcg/prog. testing due to some bleeding (probably implantation) and consequent light spotting - I have my third test tomorrow (2nd test looked great, 3rd test is for reassurance).
I have a bit of a predicament though, my girlfriend's are paying for my portion of a hotel suite in Newport, RI for a girl's weekend (I originally said I wouldn't be able to go as DH and I are trying to save for a house, so they went in on it as a 30th bday gift to me), we're going the last wkend in June - I will be 8-9 wks. So, if it were you would you tell? There's no way I can get away with the "I don't feel like drinking" or "I'm on antibotics" - they'll see right through that. I honestly don't want to go because at that point I'm probably going to be exhausted - it's already starting actually - but I can't bring myself to cancel when they got me such a nice gift. What would you do? 3 of the 4 women are very close friends - since 8th grade, but I'm afraid I'll jinx things if I tell too soon. I should be having an US in the next couple of weeks so I won't decide anything until then but, what do you all think?

I have had 2 losses (I am now 4 months along w/my first kiddo) and know that close friends are the best support IF that were to happen (knock on wood), so they would probably find out either way, whether things go as they should or if they change course. If you're worried about it, this would also be a great way to take your mind off of it for a bit.
