Re: When are you telling people

  • We've only told my sister only because I needed someone to look at my pregnancy test and tell me it was positive so that I would believe it (it was really faint). Mother's day falls right after our 12 week mark, so we may plan to do it then!

    We haven't told family or friends yet...waiting till after my 1st US next week. We will tell our family next Friday but no one else till after 12weeks is what I want. DH is ready to tell everyone now but I want to get past my 1st trimester. 
  • I was gonna wait until Easter but I got impatient. Everyone already knows as of two days ago. :P

  • We're still trying to decide. It's almost become a game to see how long we can go. My mom and sister know now -- I'm between 5 and 6 weeks. We'll probably tell H's family after the u/s at 8 weeks and maybe a couple of close friends after that. I'd like to

  • I'm almost 5 weeks, we're telling our parents tomorrow night and I'm telling my sister tomorrow over lunch. We might tell a few close friends in April but were going to wait to tell the rest of our family and friends until we're past the 12 week mark. : I
  • I will be 12 weeks on Mother's Day and plan on telling all of our family. And then at 13 weeks going to let our close friends know

  • We will probably tell our friends and distant family once we know what it is. Unless of course I show by then and then we will be forced to tell. I'm hoping since this is my second I dont get super big... that way we can hold out for a while.
  • We are waiting till Mother's Day! That will be a little after our 12 week mark :
  • We're telling everyone when I'm 11 weeks, because our families will be together.
  • We will be seeing our parents and siblings for Easter, so we'll share the news then. It will be early, just 6 weeks, but even if something terrible happens we would want them to know.

  • We'll be telling our family on Easter. It'll be hard enough for me to keep it in that long!
  • We will be waiting until after our first appointment at 8 weeks to tell family. Then we will tell some friends at 12 weeks. The rest of the world/facebook will probably find out closer to 20 weeks.

  • We have told our parents and my siblings, but we are trying to keep it a secret otherwise until Mother's Day when I will be nearly 13 weeks. Hopefully I can hold out until then! I'm not very good with secrets lol :)

  • My parents know, but we will probably tell the rest of the family on Easter. I hadn't planned on it, but we ended up with an emergency u/s today after some bleeding, so since we heard a heartbeat we may just tell them. It is so hard to keep the secret sin

    We decided to tell the rest of our families tmrw at 8 weeks, but won't tell the world till maybe 12.
  • We are telling DH's parents and siblings at easter and my parents and siblings the second week in April (when we see them in person).  I didn't tell anyone until almost 16 weeks last time because I was worried about something happening.  I en

  • We will probably blab the news after the 8 week appointment as long as everything looks good and is right on track.  I don't think I could hold it in another month and I am ready for people to share in the excitement with me. 
  • We haven't told anyone yet. I would tell my parents except that my mom suffered several losses including a still born and a baby that lived only one week before I was born so I don't want her to worry about me if God forbid something happens. I might tell

  • Unfortunately I've been in the position before where I had to un-tell and I hope to never be there again.  We'll be waiting this time until once we've reached 13 weeks and had an u/s to see the baby.  This will allow me and my husband to be

  • We have let the "cat out of the bag" to our parents, sisters and to 2 of our closest friends. I have told one girl at work, I am only 5 weeks, but I work in an IVF clinic, so I had to tell someone (I deal with pregnancy stuff all day long it was killing m
  • That's a great idea.  My 12 week mark is 4 days before Mother's day. If I can wait that long, that's what I'll do!

  • I'm hoping to wait until well after the 1st tri and hopefully halfway through the 2nd but we'll see. This is our second and our first is only five months so I don't know how fast I'll show or how long we'll be able to hide it. Right now I'm just hoping to

  • I've told my best friend and that's about it. We have our first appointment on the 11th at 9 wks so if that goes well we will probably tell immediate family and wait until 12 wks to share with friends.
