Announcing Your Pregnancy Collection - Stories of Telling People You're Pregnant

I found out I'm pregnant just a few days ago, but of course I couldn't contain my excitement & had to tell everyone right away. We already have a daughter who's almost 3, and I am the older sister in my family as well. I had decided well before I got pregnant that I would tell my mother in this way: When my younger sister was born, someone had given me a T-shirt that said "I'm the BIG SISTER". What I did was to ask my mother (who saved most of our baby clothes) if she thought the shirt would fit my daughter. She thought it probably would, and I said, "Well, if not we'll just have to get her a new one!" It took a minute for her to process what I was trying to tell her, but when it clicked she was so happy she about had a fit! Julia (our daughter) will be a big sister around Thanksgiving.
