When did you tell people you were preggo?

I am only 4 1/2 weeks and want to put a banner on a plane to tell everyone (LOL).....I am so excited it is really hard to not tell people.

when did you tell close friends (not family - our parents already know)

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

we waited until about 13 weeks.

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

I told my good friends between 6 and 8 weeks (depending on when I saw them). Other friends I told between 10-12 weeks.

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

We told at 6 weeks...couldn't hold it in!!

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

about 12 weeks. some family at 9 weeks.

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

We told immediate family at 6 weeks. We just couldn't hold it in. And a few friends who knew what we were going through.

Then we waited until 11 weeks to tell anyone else.

It is SOOOOO hard not telling people. The day we found out DH had to tell his best friend because he just felt he had to tell SOMEONE or he'd explode

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

I found out I was pregnant at 3.5 weeks (literally five days before my missed period) - we told family and close friends right away.

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

Within about 30 minutes of getting a BFP all immediate family and close friends knew!!! I absolutely do not know how to keep a secret. ETA- I was about 3 1/2 weeks..found out super early.

Thanks - you made me feel so much better about letting some people know so early!!!!!

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

We told our parents and siblings as soon as we found out (about 6 weeks), started telling friends a week or two later, and waited until the beginning of the second trimester to tell work.

It was really hard not to tell -- especially when I had m/s and wanted to explain to my students and the head of my dept why I was so sick looking all the time.

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

We told family within the week we found out. Then told close friends around week 8. Then finally work around week 11.

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

I waited 3 months the second time, because I m/c the first one, so I wanted to wait.
It was so hard keeping my mouth shut because we knew were having twins at 6 weeks.

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

Right away for close friends and family then 11 weeks for work and everyone else.

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

After my ultrascreen, 12 or 13 weeks.

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

We told my mother right after we saw the heartbeat. My good friends/neighbors knew pretty much right away b/c they knew we were trying and it was tough to keep it a secret when I see them every day. Everyone else we waited until 12 weeks...although it just dawned on me that I will be 25 weeks on Sunday and my ex-husband has know clue!!! LOL my daughter never told him!

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

family and close friends after the ultrascreen (12 weeks) and everyone else at 20 weeks - after the level II

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

we told my parents at 6 weeks and the rest of the family at 8 weeks...

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

With my first we told most friends right away. With this one we waited until I was 12-13 weeks to tell anyone. It was a BIG surprise and I made DH wait to tell a soul.

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?

With my first pregnancy - we told immediate family right away, close relatives around 9 weeks and friends coworkers at 13 weeks.

With this pregnancy - we were more laid back and told everyone at 7 weeks when we saw the heartbeat - i told my job around 10 weeks because i was already showing.

Re: When did you tell people you were preggo?
