Re: When did you tell people that you were pregnant?

Families and a couple of really close friends when we found out. Most others 11- 12 weeks

Re: When did you tell people that you were pregnant?

We told our parents already, and I told my sister and a couple of my best friends right away. If anything went wrong, I would want support from all of them anyway.

I haven't told coworkers yet, or more distant family and friends. It's getting hard to hide completely from coworkers--my stomach is very puffy. Though if they've noticed, they probably think I've gained weight.

I'm 10 weeks now, and I thought I was going to go crazy not telling coworkers in the beginning, but you get used to it.

Re: When did you tell people that you were pregnant?

Re: When did you tell people that you were pregnant?

We told my parents right away (well, 2 days after BFP since I wanted to tell them in person). DH's family at 9 weeks (Thanksgiving). Told my brother at 8 weeks, after we heard the heartbeat. My best friends were told between 7-10 weeks (depending on who I saw when).

Re: When did you tell people that you were pregnant?

As soon as I got a BFP we told our families and friends.

We told our parents after my 1st doctors appt - at 5 1/2 weeks.
We wanted to tell them - cause I was having a little bit of complications and we wanted them to be aware.

Everyone else - we told at during my 10th week - we wanted to wait longer - but ALL of DH's family was going to be in town then - so we decided to tell them then over a slide-show at an anniversary party!!

Re: When did you tell people that you were pregnant?

Ugh - clearly my husband and i are NOT in the norm. After my scare last week i definitely do not want to tell anyone other than family, but it would be nice to at least share it with them! The problem is, both of our moms have big mouths and everyone will know if we tell them. oh well, i guess this experience is going to teach me a lot of patience!!!!

Re: When did you tell people that you were pregnant?

We told our parents right away(I was about 5 weeks)...then we told other family members at Christmas....that was about 7 weeks. I told my boss shortly after my 8 week appt. Then I told work at about 10 weeks because someone else was pregnant at the same time and she shared her news.
