I feel like a freak who is trying to hide my pregnancy ..

So I am 16 weeks pregnant. Since it took me and DH over 8 years TTC, this has been a very amazing and private experience for us. Other than my parents, sisters and one good friend + MIL, we have not told anyone this entire time that we are expecting.  

At first the reason was because we wanted to make sure everything was safe before we made some big annoncement, but then as time went on I became very protective of needing to tell everyone and I keep changing the "announce date" every week. I am finally at the point where I can no longer hide this pregnancy and so our plan was to annouce it after we find out the gender .. when I will be 19 weeks.

All of a sudden I realize that everyone I know who is pregnant has told everyone weeks/months ago and I am starting to feel like some weird preggo lady that is super secretive about this. My MIL made some off handed remark the other day and said " It is going to be really awkward when you have a baby and no one even knew you were pregnant " 

I am not the only person on earth who waits this long to announce .. am I ?
