Anyone else not telling anyone?

DH and I decided to wait until my first ultrasound before we tell anyone but I feel like I am going to explode!  Our appt is feb 16!! Anyone else waiting?

Re: Anyone else not telling anyone?

  • We haven't told anyone yet (I'm 6 weeks).  Not sure when we're going to because I had a miscarriage last month (which we never told anyone about either).  Probably wait until 2nd trimester.  It's really hard not to tell my mom though!

  • We are waiting.  At first I wanted to tell everyone.  Now I like having a huge,amazing secret that only DH and I know.

    I really want to tell my mom I know she will be excited and have lots of support.

    I really am not sure when I'd want to tell H's parents..  His mom has no "filter" and will tell EVERYONE..  If I wanted everyone to know Id tell them....

    I think I will probably tell my mom next friday when I have my frist appointment.
  • My hub and and I each told a person that were basically strangers. It got it out of our system and we dont feel like we told people that would talk to anyone we know. I know it sounds silly but it actually helped.

  • We're waiting. I had a PMP in the summer of 2010 and we told our parents, siblings, and best friends immediately. Having to tell everyone bad news was the worst.

    The only person who knows is DH's dad. He needed to tell someone about it, so FIL knows and has sworn not to repeat it to MIL. He's pretty good about that, so I'm not too worried.

    We're going to wait until we hear a HB before we tell everyone, so hopefully this pregnancy will stick with us and we'll make it that far. :)

  • We aren't telling until after the 1st ultra sound in a few weeks. My mom and my sister know but that is it. We will tell close family after u/s and then won't go public until probably 10-12wks. It's hard to wait though for sure!

  • We only told a best friend couple who also found out last week that they're expecting. We wanted to be able to share it with someone who knows the same thing we're going through. That's nice. However, between their five year old daughter and my friend, her grandparents know and his sister knows (who also found out she's expecting). DH is REALLY upset about it. We're hoping the lid doesn't come off until after our first u/s on Feb 10th. He really wishes we would have kept it to ourselves until then.

  • I haven't told anyone.

    We waited until 11w last time to break the news and will probably wait until after the NT scan this time around too.

  • We haven't told anyone yet. It's kind of killing both of us. We (read: I) wanted to wait until after the first u/s when we had confirmation and could get as much of the information we could about the pregnancy (how far along, EDD, etc). But DH is afraid to tell his parents because there is a lot of pressure with him being the first grandchild for both sets of his gparents, this will also be the first great-grandchild. I wanted to honor his parents by letting them be the first to know since this will be their first grand. My mom's got three already and probably is expecting this one. No major surprise for her. I'm scared to tell his parents because I'm afraid his mom is going to tell the world before we are ready.

  • DH got to tell his best friend (they knew we were trying and have been asking) and I told 2 girlfriends, one who was trying with me and got pregnant in October and the other one is still trying.  Other than that, no one knows and we don't plan on saying anything to our families until after our first appt and u/s on 2/9.  It's very hard not to tell my mom or my sis, but it's nice to get to talk to people on here and my 2 friends.  I think we will wait to go public until around 12-13 weeks like we did with DS.

  • We normally tell right away, but had an early loss last month.  So now I'm PG again and we aren't telling anyone. I have told 2 people....a close friend and my SIL who is like a sister to me.  That's it.  No one else knows.  It's hard in some ways, but I like the challenge of not telling.  Dh wants to wait until 8wks (so 3 more weeks) before telling anyone.  That's an eternity for me, but we'll do it.

  • We're only told a select few people (both our moms, my sister, and a couple close friends). We have our first u/s today and then we'll tell the rest of the family, but other than that, I'm just going to let it leak out on it's own.
  • We aren't telling anyone til we're out of the 1st tri. Man, it's hard not to spill the beans, though!!!
