Should I tell??

So my DH just got offered a position in Germany and if we take it we will have to be in country by the end August. I'm only 5w3d so by then I'll only be 10 weeks max. It's obviously earlier than our planned 12 week reveal in case something happens.
What do you guys think I should do, move and then say we're pregnant or tell them before we leave. I'm sure we will end up seeing family before then so I'm not sure. =/

    I'd tell. No real reason to wait, other than it's "what people do."

    I would go ahead and share at least with close friends and family so they have a little time to be excited with you

    I would tell. Our doc told us there's no real reason to wait until the end of the first trimester. The odds of a miscarriage are the same then as they are at 10 weeks.

    Thanks guys these are all really good reasons to!! I was leaning toward yes but didn't want to really get my hopes up in the event dh wasn't really on board buy all these reasons make me want to say yes!

    We did not tell many people in person the 1st time because we lived so far away and I always regretted not being able to share in the moment more personally. This time around we have decided to tell as many people in person as we can even if it means telling them a little earlier. We told dh's parents at 7 weeks before our first us and told a few close friends (mostly because one is moving away and it was our last time altogether) at 8 weeks after the Us. We won't tell anyone else until my mom visits at 9 weeks. After that I just figure we will tell people as we see them. So far it has been great to really share in their reactions.

    @Stormiewinter, that's really good to hear. I want to be able to at least share one memory with everyone since we probably won't see them again until the holidays so I think this is perfect timing.
