Re: How far were you when you told close family?
Also we're getting together with both families on the same weekend for my Mom and my MIL's bdays. It just seems too perfect not to do it then.
Samantha - 4/5/2017
TW- we told both sets of parents with our previous pregnancy which ended in loss. we told them right away and had a loss at 6w. My parents were supportive but my in laws were basically jerks about it and blamed me so I wish we never told them. We also held off a bit longer this time telling the in laws. 7weeks this time. I still wish they didn't know bc they were not happy for us at all. In normal circumstances where your in laws are actually nice supportive people I wouldn't hesitate to say anything. However in our case, we regret both times telling my in laws (my husband is not happy either).
The rest of my co-workers and family that don't know yet will be told closer to the 13th week.

BFP 6/30/16, MC 8/21/16
BFP 05/04/17, 5/10/17 Emergency LAP due to ectopic. Right tube removed.
BFP 07/12/17, ECDD 03/25/18 - Silver Orion Born 3/23/18
BFP 09/30/19, EDD 06/11/20
We have told a few extended family members (grandparents, ect) since the first ultrasound at 9 weeks, but we will wait until at least 12-16 weeks before making it common knowledge.
My opinion: if you're itching to because you're close enough with them that you would share the loss too, and you can trust them to keep their mouths shut: then tell away!
Inlaws we waiting until more like 9/10 weeks. Probably will be about the same this time.

We are at 8 weeks and have heard the heartbeats 4 times already, but still haven't told anyone. Our next appointment is at almost 10 weeks, and if that goes well we plan to tell my parents then.
I'm sure a lot of people suspect (I've been really sick, missed some events, attended some without drinking), and a lot of people know we were seeing a fertility doctor. But I'm really thankful that my friends have stayed quiet and I assume are waiting for me to tell them. There are a lot of people I would probably confide in if we had a loss, but I feel like it is different to share a loss after the fact and having a joyous celebration and then having to take it back. I'm not sure if that's logical, but it's how I feel.
This time, I am telling my parents tonight (since at dinner tomorrow, we'd usually order a pitcher of margaritas) and my in-laws we will wait until after the first trimester. I've told a few of my friends so far. I'm having so much trouble not telling this time around!
This time we waited a couple days after I took the test (5 weeks) because I ordered cute props to use to tell them we were expecting!
This time around, we told my parents immediately after the test. I needed my moms help with DD with all the morning sickness. We're waiting to tell siblings until the u/s at 9 weeks. Work and the rest of the world will find out around 12 weeks.
Every one else found out at about 20 weeks.
This time I'm waiting until 15-16 weeks before telling our parents, and probably past 20 weeks for friends/extended family.
This time around, we told parents and in-laws around the same time and I've told one close friend, but I'm dying to tell the other.
I've always felt like I want those closest to me to know. If something terrible were to happen, I would want to be able to talk to them openly. So, I decide by that comfort level.
