Announcing

Sarah RN

Hi! I am 11 weeks and so far we have only told parents, close girlfriends and siblings.  I have my first visit with the OB today, if they find the heartbeat we were going to tell aunts, grandparents, etc...  Is 11 weeks still too early?

It's really a personal choice, but for us, all of those people you mentioned already knew around 8 weeks   We're waiting another week or so to "go public" though (FB, etc.)

No, 11 weeks isn't too early.  Chances of miscarriage drop dramatically after 12 weeks, and since you'll be either hearing/seeing a heartbeat at your appointment, I think that is a perfect time to tell people if you're comfortable with it.

I don't think so. I have an appt at 11 weeks also and we plan on sharing the news a few days later.

I heard the hb with the doppler at my appt on Wednesday when I was 10 weeks 5 days and after we heard it my midwife said "If you've been waiting to tell people you can definitely go ahead now"

we came out after our nt scan went well @ 12weeks 4days.. this was just our choice, due to a chem. preg in 2009. we just wanted to make sure we had pos. vibes before announcing.

Announce whenever you feel "ready"

and CONGRATS!
