Re: i have good news!!

How exciting!!!!! What great news.

Hmmm, I think I'd mention it on Christmas; its not like you're telling people when they come to the hospital when your brother/SIL has the baby

Re: i have good news!!

I personally would announce if you feel comfie announcing b4 the first tri ends... I personally did not.

They are having their child in January... I don't feel that you would be taking away from them at all.

I think it would be fine for you to share your news at Christmas. I don't think you'll be stealing their thunder or anything.

And congrats! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Share your news whenever you feel comfortable .. I don't see any reason to wait, nor do I think you are stealing any thunder by doing so..

Congratulations!

First -- COngrats!!

In my family it would be totally fine if I said it at Christmas but everyone's families are different. Do you have a close sibling you can run it by, before telling the whole family?

I'd tell your SIL first and ask her opinion. She may want you to announce it sooner rather than when her baby is here.
