How did u announce

Adebreto · October 2013

This is how we announced on Facebook

Laurelyn2012 · October 2013

That is adorable!!! I love it and would probably steal it lol but fishing season for us starts late August early September.

wimb01 · October 2013

I'm not going public until christmas...family included. My husband told his boss, and i told a friend at work and thats it.

curlylocks3 · October 2013

Cute! I don't plan on announcing on fb. I might use a skeleton tshirt on Halloween but that depends on a) how I'm feeling and b) what our group does for Halloween.

lzmac11 · October 2013

That is really cute! But we won't be FB public till maybe Christmas. We are telling parents/siblings this weekend. And close friends within the next week or so.

emandjp · October 2013

I made a little slide show to tell my dad but won't be announcing on FB until 1st tri is over, so probably on Christmas. Just to be safe...

ItttyBitttys · October 2013

We will probably just tell our families. Not sure about FB announcement. I might get DS a "big brother" shirt to wear while we're at my in-laws for Thanksgiving, just to see how long it takes for them to notice. They are usually quite clueless about a lot of things.

I got my son a shirt to tell our parents. www.knitpickymama.com she does some cute stuff! She is on Facebook too!

Tell her Lindsay sent you!

FutureMrsW9 · October 2013

Same as lots of PPs, we're not announcing until Christmas. We'll probably just put up a copy of the Christmas card that we send to close friends/family w/the announcement...probably a third stocking or something. Cute pic, though, OP!

ItttyBitttys · October 2013

@Izmac11 Thanks!

Oooh I like the card idea!

chaysefaith · October 2013

We will not be fb official until Christmas, when we are going to tell our families first. I really like the extra stocking idea.

starsinger17 · October 2013

DS's birthday is November 20th and that is right around when I'll have my first ultrasound. So my plan is to get 1st birthday pictures and have one of them be an announcement with the ultrasound and DS. Saying something like this Thanksgiving we are thankful for a new blessing, yada yada.

We announced the day I got my BFP with DS but this time I want to wait just and case and be really cheesy about it.

divinemsbee · October 2013

Nothing public on Facebook until after the anatomy scan. I may change my mind, but I'd really prefer for that to be good before we go wide with it. Family, especially those members who live their lives on FB will be told that we'll be the ones to put it there. It looks like 20 weeks would be right around Valentine's Day, which sounds like a good time to announce.

TonyaCody06 · October 2013

Haven't announced yet

zolastele · October 2013

Waiting until the new year to announce on FB. We already told immediate family, and will tell friends and extended family after the first tri is over (can't come soon enough!)

Kinipela7 · October 2013

Haven't announced yet! I will likely just tell my family when we are all together though. I really want to use my niece and nephew somehow so I don't have to just say it, but I am not creative.

zg49 · October 2013

We've already told quite a few people and we're going FB public soon. I was debating waiting until we get the first U/S picture but I've also been tossing an idea around using video game controllers and "player number 3" arriving soon type of thing since DH and I are both gamers.

owlcup · October 2013

We won't be announcing to anyone until at least Thanksgiving. It just depends on how fast and big my belly grows since this is my third. If I can still hide it, we'll wait until Christmas.

With DD and DS I announced on Facebook with their pictures after they were born. :P

Pintobean39 · October 2013

Way to early for me to announce to anyone. If I make it to Christmas I will tell everyone then. I won't put anything on fb until after I have it.

I've had two late MC and it's so hard to tell people so I want to wait not to mention I've been spotting for a week already.

ashtonblair123 · October 2013

With my angel I used this photo to announce on FB but now I'm not sure when I'll announce or how yet this time. I'm not ready to now, but my belly popped early with DD and I'm so tired all the time so far with this one, I'm not sure how long I can keep it a secret.

natasha.miller3 · October 2013

Haven't announced on FB and won't until after the first tri. I told DH by writing in lipstick on the mirror "congratulations daddy! Look inside" then put the test in the medicine cabinet. We did already tell our parents by having ds wear a big brother shirt, we skyped with dh's parents and sent pictures to mine

chusum · October 2013

That's a cute photo!

I don't do FB announcements. I think they are kind of impersonal... I guess that's a UO!

Cellingtonosu · October 2013

I told my mom yesterday after my appointment, where the doctor freaked me out about gestational diabetes possibly already due to family history and genetics.. But I am pondering what to do on Facebook after the holidays

KMHixon · October 2013

We put our dog in a "big sister" shirt to tell out parents and then announced it to the rest of the family later. I'm not sure how we'll do it on Facebook, but there are a lot of cute ideas on here! Love the fishing one and the stocking. We're huge Broncos fans so we may find a way using Broncos football. We'll probably wait till December for that as well.

justme04 · October 2013

I won't announce until I'm out of 1st tri. But my mom and MIL know along with some other family and two very close friends.

Mommyjess2014 · October 2013

Our last name is Campbell and we used this wagon at our wedding! So far only parents know!

Adebreto · October 2013

My grand parents leave for AZ in October so we always have family Christmas in October and the day we found out happened to be on that weekend so we told family that weekend and then announced on Facebook

dragonfly711 · October 2013

Not announcing til after 1 st trimester is over. I told people at work last time since I was so bloated I looked 5 months pregnant at 9 weeks. I mC at 11 1/2 weeks so waiting til after.

Only about 5 people know.

cas889 · October 2013

For the masses, I'm planning a picture collage of my daughter holding the letters for BIG SIS. We'll see how cooperative she is :P I won't go public until just before Christmas.

I'm going to tell me mom this weekend when I see her. I don't know how early we'll tell his dad, I'll probably leave that up to my husband.

cbrandt6021 · October 2013

We painted blotches of blue and pink on the baby's soon to be nursery along with "coming June 2014" and asked my parents to come see the new color we painted the room. They were so surprised!

arekeweg · October 2013

We are waiting until Thanksgiving to tell family. I don't want to post anything on FB until after he/she is born. We will tell friends as time progresses (after Thanksgiving).

dejavu22 · October 2013

We only announced to our BFFs, siblings & parents. I waited to tell my husband & got him a card that says WooHoo! you did it! Congrats Daddy! with a positive testsid inside & had my DD give the card to him wearing her big sister shirt. For our parents, I took pictures of my DD in her Big Sister shirt & frame one. None of them caught on right away...lol. I don't plan on announcing on FB until the 2nd tri, at least.

Bcsquier · October 2013

We haven't told anyone yet except my husbands daughter. But my husband wrote a poem that we will give to our parents on Halloween in a treat bag and the poem will be the trick!

modfox11 · October 2013

My first appointment will be the week before Thanksgiving so we plan on announcing to our family on Thanksgiving. Don't have a clue how we are going to announce!

athara · October 2013

We bought DS a shirt that says "This guy is going to be a big brother" so will use that to announce on Facebook, but we haven't decided yet when that will be. We just told our parents and siblings in person and over the phone. To tell my husband I got DS who is almost 2 to take him the pregnancy test when he got home from work and say "baby".

jckeown89 · October 2013

We are waiting until Thanksgiving to tell family. I don't want to post anything on FB until after he/she is born. We will tell friends as time progresses (after Thanksgiving).

This. We are waiting till Thanksgiving to tell family and will tell close friends right after that. If something happens to the baby I don't want to have to unexplain the pregnancy. We will be close to the end of first tri when we announce.

savedbyjesus13 · October 2013

My name is Kara and this is my first pregnancy. I am loving learning from this website on the baby's development.

towncargirl · October 2013

We just blurted it out to both sets of parents and a few very close friends..We are most likely going to tell the rest of our familys (siblings, grandparents) at Thanksgiving just because we have super close knit families and they will know something is up..my Grandma is already questioning my mom. My Brother's bday is on Thanksgiving day so I am going to find him a shirt that says World's Best Uncle. We aren't going to tell anyone on FB until the second tri.

KeyLime81 · October 2013

My first appt is the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, so we'll tell immediate family on Thanksgiving. (I already have a Big Brother shirt for LO to wear). I won't put anything on FB until after the a/s...probably right around Valentine's Day.

Shellann1 · October 2013

Only told immediate family and close friends. Last night went for dinner with two of my girlfriends and bought them the cutest little sugar skull Kleenexs and wipes attached a note saying that now cold and flu season is arriving and they should keep their germs to themselves so they don't get their pregnant friend sick.
They loved it
