Social Media?

[schenner2]

How many of you have or will post pregnancy annoucements/ gender of baby on facebook or other social media sites?  Tomorrow we have an ultrasound which will hopefully be able to determine the gender of our 2nd baby. I will be 20 weeks.  I have not posted anything about being pregnant however, my close friends and family know.  My hubby wants to post a picture of the ultrasound tomorrow after we have told our immediate family.  I am not sure how i feel about it.  My privacy settings are set high and i do post pictures of my 2 year old however, for some reason i have reservations about posting a pregnancy annoucement this pregnancy. I do know 2 people who have had miscarriages in the past few months and maybe that is why i am hesitant?  Anyone have any thoughts on social media and prego annoucements? Just looking for some idea of what peoples thoughts are.  Fyi i am an infrequent poster! Mostly pictures every couple weeks for my relatives who dont live near me.

Talk with your spouse see what your both comfortable with. I'm not big with posting on Facebook and my husband is but with our kids where more selective but with this pregnancy we planned on waiting to Post anything and his aunt posted it for us so that caused serious friction because it wasn't her place when we found out its a girl we did post it and when I found out my not so liked father in law (for many justified reasons) had copied it and reposted the picture after that my husband and I have decided not to post anything else but that is a very personal decision good luck

Thanks ladies! I know hubby will want to post it tomorrow.  I will think about it and decide.  I just dont need or want people i barely knew in highschool knowing my business should anything go wrong.

I posted I was pregnant with a video of the ultrasound but it would of been around 14 weeks and I've posted pics around 30 weeks when my belly started showing more. I didn't do gender announcement or anything though.

My husband posts everything as soon as it happens. I usually do too though. Its how we keep in contact with our friends and family. I don't have strangers or many acquaintances on Facebook, just people I actually associate with. I am fine with people knowing most anything that's going on. Its a personal choice though.

I will not be posting anything and I expressed to my family I don't want any pictures or announcements of him posted without my permission. Me and My husband don't do social media like that. The people I care about know. If at any time he is on social media it will come from myself or my husband.
