1st Trimester

How did you out yourself on fb?

I'm thinking about saying something in a week or so, and I'm curious if anyone thought of any interesting ways to announce it.

Re: How did you out yourself on fb?

  • I wasn't even planning on outing myself - I just said that I was really happy and felt extremely blessed... people just started to assume and then someone who really did know commented on it.?

  • I'm waiting til after our u/s next week to make sure things are OK and to find out how many are cooking...but if I do make an announcement on FB, I was thinking of saying something like after a long_ass time, thousands of dollars, surgery, and injections, I am finally freaking pregnant. ;)
  • "... will graduate from aunt to mom in June"

    ?

  • I don't really have any plans to announce it on FB. I never post anything on FB. I like my privacy.

  • When that time comes for us to out ourselves, I'm just going to put that we're adding to our (already huge) zoo and then put the due date.  The only bad thing I see about outing on facebook is that I have my boss as a friend, so we have to be sure we officially announce it to her first.  It's so very exciting!

  • I am pregnant!
  • I've told my close friends and family so they know.  I figure long-distance relationships via FB can wait until I know the gender.  So my announcement will be something like "It's a _____"
  • "Is excited to be making a person, won't be done until February though"
  • I just outed myself 10 minutes ago! I wrote:
    "1+1=4 in the mylastname family. I'm pregnant with twins!"

  • I just put "mark your calendars for Feb 21, 2010!"  never actually said anything about being pregnant, people in my family just assumed!

    "...and baby makes three!!!"

  • After our NT on Tuesday, probably will say something like "...is happy to announce that Alexandra's will be a big sister in January!"

    If it were my first, I'd probably say "...is happy to announce that Baby Meyer is due in January!"

    Not real creative, but it gets the message out there. :-)

  • I am thinking about just making my profile picture the 12 week u/s pic.

  • I was thinking along the lines of "it's official. i'm giving up my favorite cocktails for a few months..."
  • "Jen survived her first trimester"

  • My sister-in-law suggested I write "is tickled pink......or blue....." It was great. People were like um, does this mean what it sounds like? and if not, do you realize what it sounds like and what people will think? lol it was fun, for about 5 min, until my SIL and mom got so excited about being able to tell people and just put it point blank on their facebooks. then everyone knew LOL
  • DH and I are going to post next week after our 12 week ultrasound.  I can't wait!  I haven't decided what I am going to write.  I'm thinking either "L's going to be a big brother in 28 weeks" or "DH and I thought it would be fun to have 2 kids under the age of 2.  So, we're going to, in 28 weeks."
  • 1st baby for us...so I'm going to post a pic of the u/s and write "call me Mom"
  • I'm not going to announce anything on FB until 12wks, but someone I know recently announced and used the status message: "12 weeks down, 28 to go..."  and just waited for people to figure it out.  I thought that was really cute, but I don't think I can steal her same phrase!

  • Rebecca is having a BABY! Our little one is due in January.
  • I havent and am not sure I will but a friend took a few of the IQ quizes on pregnancy.....it did the trick....
  • I just came right out with it and made a formal announcement. 
  • I was thinking of adding something along the lines of "human incubator" to my hobbies. And adding a few ultrasound pics to a photo album and seeing who actually looks at it lol.
  • I put " Now that my mom knows it is safe for me to post this: We're pregnant!" Everybody was so excited.
  • I wont be for a while but one of my friends took the 'waht sex will your next baby be' quiz and then posted the results with the header- I guess we will see in November!
  • After my NT scan...I'm going to post:

    Toot and DH are expecting a little love bug due to arrive Feb 9th :)

  • I bought a shirt that says "Guess who's pregnant". My profile pic is me wearing it. Nothing needed to be said!!! Plus, got LOTS of cute comments under picture.
  • I'm considering this:

    ceresas ain't no Betty Crocker, but there's a bun in the oven!

    (EVERYone knows what a terrible baker I am, so it's like an inside joke)

  • When I hit the second tri, I'll post "Kim now understands why I was always so horrible at math! In my world, 1+1 really does equal 3!". I'm also going to change my profile pic to an ultrasound pic so that the confused people will be able to figure it out a bit easier, haha.

    Mine was similar...

    "is growing a human inside of her.  What's everyone else up to?"

  • I wrote "I don't feel well...maybe in 9 months I'll feel better ;o) "  People got the hint really quick. 
  • Love this idea, I'm going to steal it!

    We're going to wait until the 2nd tri. Then DH is going to post as his profile pic the photo he took of the "pregnant" Clear Blue Easy digital test I gave him. (Not so gross as it sounds, I put in a plastic baggy, wrapped in box and gave it to him as a "Happy Friday" present.)  He took a picture of it and later said he was going to post it as his profile pic when it was ok to start telling people.
  • I changed my profile picture to Prego Pasta Sauce.  Some people got it.

    Then I eventually wrote "Kelbel527 is Prego!"
