I told family first, then told everyone else like 2 days later. I was 5 1/2 weeks because I'm impatient lol
My first child I waited tell I was 7 months. Second child told 4 weeks and this one only told husband and step-mom. I am waiting for appointment today I think. Than I might tell my teenage son.
Told right away with all three of mine.
When i was five weeks after. I found. Out more my friends. Then family. I cried tho i really thought of abortion. And now im 29 weeks i still had thoughts. To give him up i know its hard but i know i really want this baby after haven too abortions im alone in this one. But. I feel i can do just need. To get my emotions together
I told everyone right away! I was about 6 weeks. It's a miracle. If you are excited then tell everyone! :)
I found out at 5 weeks, the week before my dad's birthday. We waited till then to tell my parents and a few days later told his parents.
When you find out the sex so everybody could be surprise
I told my family at 13 weeks as I had a miscarriage in the past and didn't want to get my family super happy for nothing. I felt once I entered into the 2nd trimester then I was good to say som.
I waited for my first dr appointment which was at 12 weeks.
I want mines done after I'm have my baby
My boyfriend and I told everyone after I was 13 weeks. I had a miscarriage at 8 weeks a few months before I got pregnant this time and wanted to wait until I was in the second trimester
I had miscarriage 4yrs ago. So with my 2nd and this one I waited until I entered my 2nd trimester. I didn't want to get anyone hopes including my own up until I was in "safe zone".
My husband and I found out for sure that I was pregnant the day before we moved into our first house. I was almost 6 weeks. I told everyone that was there to help us move as my husband wouldn't let me lift anything. Everyone else I waited until 13 weeks.
After two miscarriages in a row each at 13 weeks we waited until into the second trimester before sharing the news with anyone besides immediate family (who were told between 6-8 weeks). I think I was 15 weeks - I know it was New Year's Eve!
I have 2 kids already, my last pregnancy ended in a miscarriage at 10 weeks so this time aound at my first doc appt (@ 8 weeks) my doc said to wait until around 12 weeks just to be safe with this one. We told a few close friends right away (@ 8 weeks). Then we told family after the 12th week doc visit when he said everything was healthy. Told everyone else around 20 weeks by showing off the 20 week ultrasound picture.
We told everyone once we heard the heart beat. I think it was around 10 weeks.
Personally I don't see the point in waiting if your excited to tell people. The theory is, if you were to lose the baby before that 12 week ultrasound then you won't have to disappoint or upset the people you have told (and people say it's harder for you to cope if other people know)
My idea is, if that were to happen then wouldn't you want to be able to talk about it and not keep it bottled up inside?
Anyhoo, you have been checked. You and baby are doing wonderful so spread the news since your excited about it!! Congratulations!!
I ended up in the hospital at 5 weeks for unrelated reasons so i had to tell immediate family/work why i wasnt having a surgery i needed right away Because i was pregnant. We told everyone else at 20 weeks when we knew the sex. First baby i told everyone at 13 weeks I think and family at 8 weeks as it was christmas!
Our first pregnancy we waited till I was about 15 weeks(and we lived 6 hrs away from all family) because it was a rough start. Then I PPROM at 17 weeks and lost Owen at 28wks 3 days. This pregnancy we are telling immediate family after our 6 week ultras sound so we have support in case I have another rough pregnancy.
We told some family and close friends at 6-8 weeks. Most people know now but I'm 14 and still need to tell my boss
We didn't tell anyone until the 2nd trimester. This is my 4th pregnancy. Told ppl about the first 2 when we found out and miscarried both times.
We told immediate family at around 6 weeks (my stepdad is also my boss), hence why we did it so early and it was the only time everyone would be together. They were also yhe kind of people who wouldn't tell a soul, so we were ok to tell them. Everyone else found out when we were 12 weeks along.
I'm in the same boat. My partner and I told our close family but that's it. I'm paranoid that I will have a miscarriage so don't want to tell friends etc until after my scan on the 19th but dying to announce to the world that I'm expecting as been wanting another for years. Just announce when the time feels right for you and all the best on your pregnancy!
We told everyone in the family at about 8-9 weeks. I'm a ftm too and I had someone tell me something that really changed my mind about when to say something. I asked if she thought I should wait to tell everyone til the 2nd trimester in case of miscarriage. Her response was, "tell them whenever. You enjoy every minute of this bc even in the second and third trimester something unfortunate can happen. also, if something does happen, everyone is allowed to grieve." She was right. We told our parents at Christmas, and friends after Jan 1st. Good luck to you sweetie!
