My mom told me the same thing we ended up telling the family before I was even out if first trimester nd I'm now in my third trimester 36+1 weeks I've just stayed positive but it's all up to you
Worrying never ends when your a parent!! Just do your best of taking care of yourself and your little one and it will go great :). Btw I heard the same thing about telling people "too early" and I see where there coming from but I told everyone at 5 weeks and Im now 31 weeks and healthy as can be. Best of luck !!
Ftm here also. It's really scary in the beginning, bc you don't know what to expect. You get aches and pains that make you Wanna jump out of your skin. I was the same way. I just wanted to wrap myself in bubble wrap so no one could come near me. The best advice I can give is to try to relax a little and take good care of yourself. Relaxing is A lot harder than it sounds, I know. I'm not going to lie the worry doesn't completely go away. I'm almost 32 wks and still worry, but it gets better and you begin to worry about different things. I guess it comes w the new title of Mommy. As far as telling people.. I would tell close family and friends, the "need to know" folks. But it's your decision whether or not you're ready for the world to know. I shared my news at 9 wks. Which some people though was a little early.. but to each their own.
They say not to tell people till after ur first trimester. With my first child i was worried all the time but as long as u do ur best to take care of urself and the life inside of u u should be okay. My daughter came out perfectly healthy and I realized all that worrying was for nothing
