	Description:		Determining exactly when a woman has become pregnant has improved significantly in recent decades, but despite the increased accuracy, many of us believe we are supposed to keep it a secret until after 12 weeks. But where does this idea come from? The Quicky investigates whether there is there a legitimate medical reason to keep it quiet during the first trimester, or based purely on old superstitions.
