Re: Announcement holdouts

    I'm sure I'll make a FB announcement at some point, but I haven't yet. We told a bunch of friends at DH's birthday party this weekend (he was so offhand about it, a bunch of people thought he was joking at first), but I'm not really in a rush to tell other people before I start showing unless I see them in person.

    I have not announced on FB yet. DH and I told a few co-workers but that's it so far. Oh and my best friend. I want to announce to family and then closest friends first before FB.

    I was thinking we'd start the process later this week or next. My mom is coming into town the weekend of the 5-6 so I'll tell her then. I've been waiting for DH to decide when he wants to tell MIL. I'm thinking after my MaterniT21 test comes back which I'm hoping will be this week. Then we can tell the sex too. Although I'm starting to question how that will go over. I think I'm putting too much thought into it.

    I didn't announce on FB until we found out what we were having. Not sure if I am going to make an annoucement this time.

    I haven't announced.  I don't know why I haven't yet.  I've been telling friends and family but I haven't announced on FB or sent a mass email.  I just can't bring myself to push the button.
    This exactly. We're not "hiding" it, just haven't made a big announcement, and nothing is particularly driving that decision.

    I have no desire to announce on Facebook ... if someone is important enough, I'll tell them in person or on the phone if they don't live locally. 
    Ditto Kmack510! We have told our family and friends in person or over the phone, I don't think it's necessary for me to post an announcement.
