at least in chile, we have this cultural thing that pregnant couples have to wait till the baby is 3 months old to tell family and friends about the pregnancy the reason being because of how painful it would be to have a miscarriage, and the disappointment it would bring it sucks. i don’t like it at all. how can’t you share with your loved ones such an important news? and more than that: how is it possible that we can’t deal with pain together? it is painful to lose a baby and even more painful and sad is to have to swallow all that pain on your own because society expected you to not tell it about the pregnancy hope these things change soon. there are aspects of life that are painful. death is a part of life actually, death is what gives life meaning. even of a newborn that didn’t make it the next years will bring enormous amount of progress and evolution and that needs to come with spiritual evolution also. and that means facing every aspect of the human experience together

I know some people who have had a miscarriage in the past who do the same thing here in the US But as a cultural thing to not share you are pregnant seems wild to me, if anything your family and friends would be the people you would want to support you in that time

so wild. if you can’t trust your close family for stuff like this, what remains for the rest? (and lots of people - us included - have trouble trusting in them because of how they react - and overreact - to things)
