When will you tell your other kids?

I keep going back and forth on this one.  My son is 4.5 and I have to take him to dr appts because I don't have anyone local to watch him.  I'm not so worried about my daughter, since she's only 2.5, but my son will pick up on it eventually.  I'd rather wait until I was out of the first tri to tell them but I don't want to wait that long to tell everyone.

Re: When will you tell your other kids?

  • My 2.5 year old went to all my appointments when I was pregnant with my 7 month old. We went today to my ultrasound and he definitely knew what was up and even asked me "baby?". I don't have advice for the older, it does worry me even with the 2.5 year old if anything were to happen what we would say.

  • My kids are 8 and 5. I'm not telling until 14 weeks. I've had two miscarriages and I'm too afraid. Tell when you feel it's right. I'd love to tell at 11 weeks but.....
  • I'm going to wait until 12 weeks. My son will tell the entire world.
  • We will tell our son after I first appointment.. I will be Almost 9 weeks.. he is 10 so will start to catch on..
  • Mine won't know until closer to viability. They're not quite 2.5 yet.
  • Not until after my first appt and as long as everything is fine that is when I will tell everyone else. Kids will tell the world, so I have to keep my mouth shut.
