I'm 8 weeks pregnant and am planning to tell my work at just after 12 weeks. The father and I are good friends but not a couple. I'm worried about being the centre of stigma and gossip if I were to tell people that I am doing this alone. I am tempted to pretend that the father (who they will never met anyway) and I are a couple. This would be easy as my work life is completely separate to my personal life. I work in a small team of women though and they love to chat and gossip so I know I will have to bat away endless questions. Either way I feel I can't win! Anyone been in a similar situation??
