After this years losses finally being able to see a heartbeat was nice but theyvhave me going back next week at juat about 10weeks. Do you think if that sono goes good its ok to spill the beans to our family and friends.

This is a completely personal decision. We told my MIL at 11 weeks because she was living with us, and my mother a few days later, we told the rest of the family after the 12 week NT scan. Friends we trickled after that and FB "official" at 15ish weeks.

It is a personal decision. I know for us after our second loss we only told my parents. After 12 weeks we told my inlaws and immediate fam. We told friends a couple weeks later. It's hard not to tell everyone, it's an exciting time (although I was a nervous werck) but do what you feel comfortable with. Good Luck to you!!

Re: when to tell family
It's so hard to say and a really personal decision depending on what you're comfortable with. We waited as long as we could and weren't fully out until 18 weeks. I wanted to wait longer (till my anatomy scan) but there was a holiday at the 18 week point and I looked very obviously pregnant.

I'm having the same problem now. I miscarried in April and just found out this week I'm pregnant. I'm so nervous this time and could really use the support but I don't want to have to untell people either. I think that was he hardest part last time. Right now only 2 people know aside from me and hubby, my best friend who is also pg and my boss. And that's only bc I'm a mgr in a hardware store and I refuse to handle chemicals and fertilizer so he needed to know.

Im thinking i will tell them because im so sick its hard to function. Today i feed my kids cereal and grilled cheese because i was to sick to go to the food store. Then i fell asleep on the couch for 3 hours without even realizing i was tired.

I have a history of losses (late term) so I wait as long as possible before telling anyone(besides DH). I usually spill the beans around 20 weeks or so.
I think its a personal choice and do whatever makes u comfortable.
