When did you tell people other than....

your immediate family? Like friends and work?

We told our parents and siblings already but I am not sure when to tell other people. I know it's very early for me but I feel like I am busting at the seems!! I want to tell everyone!!!

Re: When did you tell people other then...

Our closest friends & family we told around 8 weeks, after we had the sono. We waited to tell co-workers, extended family, etc. until 12 weeks. It's definitely a personal choice, but I was a little superstitious I guess,

I couldnt keep my mouth shut....all of my friends know and my mom and MIL told all of the extended family. So lets hope nothing happens (...otherwise its going to be a really tough time.)

We told everyone except work right away. If something happens, god forbid, I want my friends and family there as a shoulder.

Re: When did you tell people other than....

I wanted to keep this a secret at work but I couldnt, I felt so bad (throwing up, nausea) that people thought I was sick, dying or something, since it is mostly women, they figured it out lol we started telling other people after 3 months...

This is exactly what we did. We didn't want to tell people for the first time after losing the baby, God forbid. (We can take all the prayers we can) We wanted to tell people good news!!!!!

I told immediate family right away. Told some friends early but most of them I told at the 3 month mark. Told work people at around 5 month mark, when I started to show.
