Who hasn't told anyone?
We've known for 2 days and I'm already itching to tell my parents. We're waiting until after my first appointment...and it's MY idea to wait. But it's hard because keeping it from our families means keeping it from our friends and people I talk to all day. It's hard to talk about anything knowing I have this amazing secret. Being careful on twitter and resisting the urge to blog about it is KILLING ME.
AND this thread is totally pointless. It's just safer for me to talk about it here than anywhere else. Obviously. Ha ha.

Re: Who hasn't told anyone?
It's all good - I think that's why we're all here, because we can talk about hings that no one else wants to hear.
I haven't told anyone except my bff and honestly... I don't want to. But that's a whole other issue.

We haven't told anyone either and I agree that the waiting is painful.
This reply is also pointless, except for that now I can vent about it.

My 101
I have three weeks until the appointment, and then depending on how we decide to tell them another day or so (we don't live near them).
Our really close friends knew we were TTC and so a couple of them asked. Or we may not have told them. I don't want to LIE to anyone, I just want to wait on telling them.
We eloped when we got married, and we couldn't keep that to ourselves either. We aren't very good at keeping our own secrets apparently.

We have known for 1 week and we still haven't told anyone! This is our first baby also and I can't wait to tell everyone! I talk to my mom every day and this past week has been SOOOOO hard. I think she thinks that DH and I are about to get a divorce or something...I don't really say much on the phone and when she asks me if I'm ok, I have to sound cheerful when I just want to tell her everything!!!!!
I don't know how much longer I can keep this up...one day I'm just going to go off the deep end and tell everyone I know!!!
We haven't told anyone yet. We probably won't until the end of the 1st trimester. With DS, we told our families when I was about 5 or 6 weeks because my parents were leaving for Florida for 3 months and we didn't want to tell them over the phone. We waited to tell friends until the 1st trimester was over.
This time, we want to savor the "secret" for just a bit since we didn't get to the last time.
I feel your pain. I have told a former co-worker [who is also pregnant but due in March] and a current co-worker [who has no children]. They were excited but I told them if they open their mouth I will open a can of whoop a** on them
It is hard not telling my mom or siblings but since we live 600 miles away it is easy to avoid the convo
BFP#1 8/24/11, EDD 5/5/12, D&C 10/24/11 due to missed m/c
BFP #2 2/1/12, EDD 10/11/12. Baby arrived 10/9/12
BFP #3 5/6/14, EDD 1/14/15
I just told my BFF. She knew we were trying, we work together and if I stopped talking about trying, then she would have figured it out. And I am dying to talk about it so she's there. My husband works alot right now, so he is barely home, so I need someone to talk about. I think we will tell our parents at 7 weeks, and then friends later (if we can keep it in). My first appt isn't until 12 weeks so I don't think I will keep it in that long!
