12 Week Rule: Breaking the Stigma


Listen Later

In this episode, Sara and Meg discuss the “12 week rule” and why it’s so taboo to announce your pregnancy prior to 12 weeks. They dive into why this “rule” exists, how it can make loss feel so isolating & what they plan to do with their next pregnancy announcements. Sara & Meg encourage this to be an ongoing discussion in their DMs & on the Meant to be Mama community Facebook group. They would love to hear your thoughts, when you announced and how you may or may not do it differently next time around.
